a022cf6329 Change behavior to conform to POSIX 1003.1-2001:
- Do not adjust scheduling priority.
- Redirects stderr to stdout, if stderr is not a terminal.
- Exit status is now 126 if command was found but not invoked,
  127 if nohup failed or if command was not found.

The default time style is now posix-long-iso instead of posix-iso.

47c5a14bad Make cp -r equivalent to cp -R. Add a new cp option --copy-contents
for people who want to emulate the traditional (and rarely desirable)
cp -r behavior.

(cp invocation): Document this.
Fix some related minor bugs: --no-dereference is no longer
equivalent to -d, and --archive (-a) can override the other
symlink options.  Warn that cp -R is not portable on symbolic
links unless you also specify -P.

80cb677ce9 Change 'split' to conform to POSIX. It now accepts an -a or

f5bf6fe980 Use notation compatible with SI and with IEC 60027-2.
For example, --block-size=1MB now means --block-size=1000000,
whereas --block-size=1MiB now means --block-size=1048576.
A trailing `B' now means decimal, not binary; this is a silent change.
-H or --si now outputs the trailing 'B', for consistency with this.
Programs now output trailing 'K' (not 'k') to mean 1024.
New df, du short option -B is short for --block-size.
You can omit an integer `1' before a block size suffix,
e.g. `df -BG' is equivalent to `df -B 1G' and to `df --block-size=1G'.

Document the above.  Remove documentation
for obsolescent constructs MD, --kilobytes, -m or --megabytes.
