* src/remove.c (remove_entry): Handle EACCES for a non-directory, too.
Karl Berry reported that a cross-partition "mv /etc/issue ~"
failed with the um,... suboptimal diagnostic,
"mv: cannot remove `/etc/issue': Not a directory".
* tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add fail-eacces.
* tests/rm/fail-eacces: New file.
* NEWS: Mention that both mv and rm are affected.
* src/cut.c (cut_fields): Set file-scoped global to NULL after
freeing it. This avoids a double-free (and core dump on some systems)
for this usage: "echo 1>a; echo 2>b; cut -f2- a b". Reported by
James Hunt in <http://bugzilla.redhat.com/220312>.
* NEWS: List this bug fix.
* THANKS: Mention him.
* tests/misc/cut: New file.
* tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add cut.
* tests/cp/open-perm-race: New file, to test for the
cp --preserve=ownership fix of 2006-12-06.
* tests/cp/Makefile.am (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Define abs_top_builddir.
(TESTS): Add open-perm-race.
* src/chgrp.c (main): Don't prohibit -RLh, aka -RL with --no-dereference.
* src/chown.c (main): Likewise.
* src/chown-core.c (change_file_owner): Add to a comment.
* tests/chown/preserve-root: Add tests.
* doc/coreutils.texi (Treating / specially): With --preserve-root,
chgrp and chown will not modify "/", even through a symlink.
* src/chmod.c (process_file): Do honor the --preserve-root option.
* src/chown-core.c (change_file_owner): Likewise, but here, also
handle the case in which a traversal would go "through" a symlink
to root. Reported by Matthew M. Boedicker
* tests/chown/preserve-root: Test for the above.
* tests/chown/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add preserve-root.
* tests/mv/acl (skip): Check for acl support in the file system.
* tests/mv/Makefile.am (XFAIL_TESTS): Remove.
(TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Pass CONFIG_HEADER.

so that commands like "sort -k 18446744073709551616" no longer fail merely
because 18446744073709551616 doesn't fit in uintmax_t. The trick is that
these fields can all be treated as effectively infinity; their exact
values don't matter, since no internal buffer can be that long.
* src/join.c (string_to_join_field): Verify that SIZE_MAX <= ULONG_MAX
if the code assumes this. Silently truncate too-large values to SIZE_MAX,
as the remaining code will do the right thing in this case.
* src/sort.c (parse_field_count): Likewise.
* src/uniq.c (size_opt, main): Likewise.
* tests/join/Test.pm (bigfield): New test.
* tests/sort/Test.pm (bigfield): New test.
* tests/uniq/Test.pm (121): New test.

* Makefile.maint (gnulib_snapshot_date): Define.
(announcement): Use two new announce-gen options,
--bootstrap-tools and --gnulib-snapshot-date.
* Makefile.cfg (gnulib_dir): Set.
evoke diagnostics like this when COLUMNS=0 in the environment:
ls: ignoring invalid width in environment variable COLUMNS: 0
* tests/touch/no-rights: Likewise.
* tests/help-version: Likewise.
* NEWS: Document the cp -p fix for special bits.
* src/copy.c (set_owner): Now returns a three-way result, so
that the caller can clear the special bits. All callers changed.
(copy_reg): Don't set the special bits if chown failed.
(copy_internal): Likewise.
* tests/cp/special-bits: Test this fix.

* m4/jm-macros.m4 (coreutils_MACROS): Check for fchmod.
* src/copy.c (fchmod_or_lchmod): New function.
(copy_reg): New arg OMITTED_PERMISSIONS. All uses changed.
Omit confusing and unused ", dst_mode" arg to 'open' without O_CREAT.
When creating a file, use O_EXCL, so we're more likely to detect
funny business by other processes. At the end, if permissions
were omitted, chmod them back in.
(copy_internal): If the ownership might change, omit some permissions
at first, then restore them after chowning the file.
* src/cp.c (make_dir_parents_private): Likewise.
* src/copy.c (cached_umask): New function.
* src/copy.h (cached_umask): New decl.
directory listed as second or subsequent command line argument.
* tests/du/one-file-system: New file. Test for today's fts.c fix.
* tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add one-file-system.
