i've compiled chown on a gentoo gnu/linux system, the
program reports its version as 5.0.91.
it seems to no longer accept a user followed by a group with a separator
as a full-stop (the colon works fine).
this means I get:
# chown root. *
chown: `root.': invalid user
# chown root.audio *
chown: `root.': invalid user
but:
# chown root *
succeeds, as does
# chown root:audio *
etc...
