I should have added, I bulit the GNU coreutils on 't2' and installed them on 't2'. They are installed under /usr/local/coreutils-8.4 I would *not* add the directory to your path on a permanent basis, as doing so will mask issues that are specific to Solaris. But I would be tempted to do $ cp /usr/local/coreutils-8.4/bin/cp /some/tmp/directory $ export PATH=/some/tmp/directory:$PATH before running sage-bist.
