coreutils bug fix update

An updated coreutils package that fixes Pluggable Authentication Modules
support in the su(1) command is now available.

The coreutils package contains core GNU utilities. It is the combination
of the old GNU fileutils, sh-utils, and textutils packages.

Several issues have been fixed in the su(1) command, all concerning
support for Pluggable Authentication Modules:

- su does not set the pam tty variable. This is needed for auditing among
other things.
- if there is a problem with init groups, session close must be called
since session open can mount drives.
- pam credentials should not be set in the child since the parent will
need to dispose of credentials later.
- if there is a fork error, pam credentials need to be deleted and the
session closed.
- the parent needs to delete the pam credentials before it ends pam.

All users of coreutils are advised to upgrade to this updated package,
which resolves these issues.

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
