so we know we're talking about the same thing, i think you're referring to the 
patch as you cited in an old e-mail and found here:
http://www.suse.de/~agruen/coreutils/5.91/

the patch has been updated in opensuse since (i'm attaching the latest one i 
can find from their coreutils-6.9-43 version).  the only thing i have in 
Gentoo beyond this patch is to add AC_ARG_ENABLE(xattr) support.
