[Brett, this doesn't address the copyright issue. I'm hoping the "License" section in README is sufficient for that. ] FYI, I've thought about this, but still haven't done anything. However, I will probably not modify bootstrap after all. Instead, I expect to switch coreutils to a different approach altogether, using gnulib as a git submodule. (requires git-1.5.3 or newer) That will make it so any clone of coreutils also includes a clone of gnulib, and will provide a cleaner way of tying a specific gnulib snapshot to any given coreutils version.
