Do we want to wait for the gnulib workaround for broken AIX 7.1 fstatat? 
 That looks like it will be soon in coming.

Sure.
In any case I'll probably make a snapshot first
and then wait a day or two before the real release.

Hmm, as long as we're releasing for an fts improvement, I wonder if it 
would be worth getting du --noatime (and friends) implemented, to take 
advantage of gnulib's FTS_NOATIME.  I mentioned doing that a while ago 
when I made the gnulib change, but guess I haven't gotten to it yet.

There's no hurry to add that, as far as I'm concerned,
but if you want to do it now I won't object.

I'd liked to see http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=9321
looked into before release (segfaults in sort)

cheers,
Pádraig.

So would I.  I've just replied there.

I am seeing no evidence of the problems on another machine, so must
assume this is local to the original hardware.  Please close #9321.

Thanks for letting us know.  I've closed it and tagged it "notabug".

FYI, you could have closed it yourself by sending this message
to 9321-d...@debbugs.gnu.org.

An alternative (what I did) is to reply to the thread and to Bcc
the bug-tracking control address, cont...@debbugs.gnu.org
including these lines at the top of the message:

tags 9321 + notabug
close 9321
thanks

Thanks.
Those can obviously wait until after the release.
Next time, please omit the signed-off-by lines.

If you have chosen to enable that option globally,
please run something like this in your coreutils directory:

git config format.signoff false

Then you (and I!) won't be bothered about it again.

sorry about that. That was before you told me that the first
