That's rather old. Can you repeat it with the latest stable release of
8.6? Meanwhile, I'm wondering if your setup is a duplicate of this report:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2010-11/msg00011.html
although it's hard to say, since you didn't provide any information
about what platform and kernel version you tested on.
