Bug#370583: cat -vte /proc/self/cmdline

[Dan Jacobson]

Package: coreutils
Version: 5.94-1
Severity: minor
File: /bin/cat

I don't understand why this happens:
$ cat /proc/self/cmdline|wc
      0       1      23
$ cat -e /proc/self/cmdline|wc
      0       0       0
$ cat -v /proc/self/cmdline|wc
      0       0       0
$ cat -t /proc/self/cmdline|wc
      0       0       0
$ cat /proc/self/cmdline > y
$ cat -e y|wc
      0       1      25
