Thanks for your exemplary bug report. I mentioned it to upstream which
promptly answered that it's now fixed in
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/utils/util-linux/util-linux.git/commit/?id=b2bff0666101213d5ce9fc4166d8fc5b17581f57

Please feel free to notify upstream directly in the future if you find
any similar issues.

Regards,
Andreas Henriksson

PS. Please note that tailf is deprecated. Use tail -f ....
