The build failure of coreutils on hurd causes 'df' to look for the old
and missing /var/run/mtab instead of /etc/mtab, when booting hurd with
sysvinit, and all programs expecting df to work (like the scripts in the
initscripts package) is unable to work properly.  This causes hurd
installations to misbehave by default.

<URL: http://bugs.debian.org/d737759 > is a related bug report
suggestiong a workaround, but according to the hurd porters only
coreutils need a fix and the workaround is not wanted.

Any chance of a maintainer uploading of a fixed version of coreutils
soon?  If not, is it ok with an NMU?
