I did not run into these problems before.

For coreutils, you may want to consider upgrading our coreutils - or we
may try asking Dmitry to do this soon enough (like in a week), in case
he's available and willing to do it, of course. ;-)  We'll definitely
need to upgrade it before Owl 4.0 anyway.  (RPM is trickier.)

Also, please note that I intend to generate a set of ISOs shortly before
you commit the glibc upgrade.  So please coordinate this commit with me.

In fact, please coordinate the coreutils upgrade with me as well.

Thanks,

Alexander
