If any of the errors are surrounding ACL (permission denied stuff),
you may want to look at the patch I carry (for now, it's in upstream)
with coreutils. It's a gnulib fix that handles an extra error
condition with the permission setting routines. I _think_ that
findutils is also using gnulib and if it's not a current enough import
there, it likely suffers from the same error that coreutils did.
Other than that, nice to see an update to this. Will you be providing
your own /opt/csw/gnu links? I'd appreciate you adding them so that I
can drop those links from the CSWgnulinks package.
HTH.
