I'm planning to release coreutils-8.4 tomorrow.
It will be a build-fix-only release, along with a minor bug fix
for the relatively new command, nproc. I've opted to take
all of the many changes from gnulib up to this morning, because
they seem safe. A few are required to fix actual problems. Note that
most of the gnulib changes have no effect on coreutils, since we don't
use libunistring (yet!).

Here's the NEWS so far:
---------------------------------
** Bug fixes
nproc --all is now guaranteed to be as large as the count
of available processors, which may not have been the case
on GNU/Linux systems with neither /proc nor /sys available.
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.1]
** Build-related
Work around a build failure when using buggy <sys/capability.h>.
Alternatively, configure with --disable-libcap.
Compilation would fail on systems using glibc-2.7..2.9 due to changes in
gnulib's wchar.h that tickled a bug in at least those versions of glibc's
own <wchar.h> header. Now, gnulib works around the bug in those older
glibc <wchar.h> headers.
Building would fail with a link error (cp/copy.o) when XATTR headers
were installed without the corresponding library. Now, configure
detects that and disables xattr support, as one would expect.
