[issue11946] 2.7.1 'test_commands' build test fails

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray <rdmurray at bitdance.com> added the comment:

I would say that coreutils is wrong to be appending a space.  If a program were to parse the output of ls, it would reasonably expect the filename to be rendered exactly as it appears in the directory.  That is, a program should treat a trailing space as *part* of the filename, which it clearly isn't in this case.
