Hi, I've built and uploaded to Hobbes 
http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/cgi-bin/h-search?key=coreutils the GNU coreutils ver 
5.93. The core utils are the
union of the GNU fileutils, sh-utils, and textutils packages.

This is just a quick build with no source changes using GCC 3.3.5 so 
libc063.dll is required. Most programs seem to work though things like 
cp.exe and mv.exe have no EA support. I repeat copying and moving files 
with this build will result in lost EAs. Of interest is the ln.exe command 
for creating symlinks. Any program built with klibc ver6+ and using the 
built in functions should work with symlinks. Though of course no promises 
and the only guarantee is that these programs are untested and may not work 
as advertised or at all.
