Upstream update.
Signoff both, Allan
* Noteworthy changes in release 8.7 (2010-11-13) [stable]
** Bug fixes
cp, install, mv, and touch no longer crash when setting file times on Solaris 10 Update 9 [Solaris PatchID 144488 and newer expose a latent bug introduced in coreutils 8.1, and possibly a second latent bug going at least as far back as coreutils 5.97]
csplit no longer corrupts heap when writing more than 999 files, nor does it leak memory for every chunk of input processed [the bugs were present in the initial implementation]
tail -F once again notices changes in a currently unavailable remote directory [bug introduced in coreutils-7.5]
** Changes in behavior
cp --attributes-only now completely overrides --reflink. Previously a reflink was needlessly attempted.
stat's %X, %Y, and %Z directives once again print only the integer part of seconds since the epoch. This reverts a change from coreutils-8.6, that was deemed unnecessarily disruptive. To obtain a nanosecond-precision floating point time stamp for %X use %.X; if you want (say) just 3 fractional digits, use %.3X. Likewise for %Y and %Z.
stat's new %W format directive would print floating point seconds. However, with the above change to %X, %Y and %Z, we've made %W work the same way as the others.
