Hello, I don't know about this new status... I reported this bug at the time of Lucid, now in Precise, we have version 8.13 of coreutils as apt-get shows
$ apt-cache show coreutils Package: coreutils Essential: yes Priority: required Section: utils Installed-Size: 5496 Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers <email address hidden> Original-Maintainer: Michael Stone <email address hidden> Architecture: amd64 Version: 8.13-3ubuntu3.1 Replaces: mktemp, timeout Depends: dpkg (>= 1.15.4) | install-info Pre-Depends: libacl1 (>= 2.2.51-5), libattr1 (>= 1:2.4.46-5), libc6 (>= 2.15), libselinux1 (>= 1.32) Conflicts: timeout Filename: pool/main/c/coreutils/coreutils_8.13-3ubuntu3.1_amd64.deb
In this version 8.13 I can confirm that the documentation bug (in fact translation bug) is fixed for me.
I had an exchange with the maintainer by e-mail, and this translation bug was affecting also other languages. I can confirm only for French though.
So I'll stop watching this bug as for me it has status:
==> fixed
