CVS coreutils currently doesn't build out of the box since some of the
code uses X2REALLOC and X2NREALLOC but these macros were removed from
xalloc.h. Was the removal intentional? If so, uses of X2REALLOC need

Personally I'm becoming more inclined to not

I installed these miscellaneous patches to dd.c, prompted by my
discovery the user can cause a buffer overflow by specifying weird
block sizes. There's also a fix to avoid a call to stat in the usual
case where ftruncate succeeds.

As I understand it, that is a deficiency in the Linux API rather than
a bug in coreutils proper:
