Hi everyone, I've just noticed coreutils 8.1 in [testing] repo and I think I should warn you. Unfortunatelly it has one quite bad regression which can break quite many scripts.
There is a change in rm command (it's fixed in git repository) that when you try to remove "" it immediately exits without removing any other specified files. Unfortunately this breaks many scripts and Makefiles(IIRC there's problem with eg. libxt).
I suggest NOT to upgrade to coreutils 8.1 before the old behavior is restored.

You should get this to the bug tracker, an upstream fix is already available, so this should be corrected easily and quickly.
