* init.cfg (require_membership_in_two_groups_): Skip
overflow gids used in user namespaces, as one can't
chgrp() to these.
Fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/78225
* init.cfg (ulimit_supported_): skip_ if the ulimit -v
takes too long, which was seen with bash 5.2 on Solaris 11,
where fork() returned EAGAIN under memory constraints,
and bash retried for about 16 seconds.
(get_min_ulimit_v_): Break early if skipped.
* tests/misc/write-errors.sh: Be more conservative and
skip on failure to determine min ulimit.

Most of this just affects commentary and documentations. The only
significant behavior change is translating author names via
proper_name_lite rather than proper_name_utf8, or not translating
them at all. proper_name_lite is good enough for coreutils and
avoids the bloat that had coreutils not using Gnulib proper_name.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Use propername-lite instead
of propername.
(XGETTEXT_OPTIONS): Look for proper_name_lite instead of for
proper_name_utf8.
* cfg.mk (local-checks-to-skip): Remove
sc_proper_name_utf8_requires_ICONV, since we no longer use
proper_name_utf8.
(old_NEWS_hash): Update.
(sc_check-I18N-AUTHORS): Remove; no longer needed.
Upcomming gnulib changes may disable SEEK_HOLE
even if the system supports it, so dynamically
check if we've SEEK_HOLE enabled.
* init.cfg (seek_data_capable_): SEEK_DATA may be disabled in the build
if the system support is deemed insufficient, so also use `cp --debug`
to determine if it's enabled.

* tests/cp/sparse-perf.sh: Run the SEEK_DATA check on the
1TiB empty file to exclude both FreeBSD 9.1 which takes 35s,
and ZFS which requires a delay of about 5s between file creation
and use of SEEK_DATA to correctly determine it's empty (return ENXIO).
Also remove the stat size checks as they invalidate the test
due to cp never writing data due to it being always zeros,
and thus converted to holes in the output.

fiemap is no longer the default copy implementation,

When configured with either 'symlinks' or 'shebangs' as value for
the --enable-single-binary option, tests based on `ulimit -v` are
skipped. The reason is that the multicall 'coreutils' binary requires
much more memory due to shared libraries being loaded, and the size of
the 'date' binary (~290KiB) compared to the multicall binary (~5MiB),
of course. Finally, in the case of 'shebangs', the starting shell
requires more memory, too
Instead of using hard-coded values for the memory limit, use an
adaptive approach: first determine the amount of memory for a similar,
yet more trivial invocation of the command, and then do the real test
run using that limit (plus some buffer in some cases).
* init.cfg (require_ulimit_v_): Remove function.
(get_min_ulimit_v_): Add function to determine the minimum memory limit
required for a given command in an adaptive way.
* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_test_ulimit_without_require_): Change the name
of the above function in the syntax-check rule.
* tests/cp/link-heap.sh: Use the above function to determine the
minimum memory required to run a command simpler than in the real test
run. Use that limit plus a buffer there. While at it, change to list
of commands in the subshell to fail also if the beginning `ulimit -v`
fails.

which references dlsym() from libdl.
Since commit v8.22-94-g99960ee, chroot(1) skips the chroot(2) syscall
for "/" arguments (and synonyms). The problem is that it also skips
the following chdir("/") call in that case. The latter breaks existing
scripts which expect "/" to be the working directory inside the chroot.
While the first part of the change - i.e., skipping chroot("/") - is
okay for consistency with systems where it might succeed for a non-root
user, the second part might be malicious, e.g.
cd /home/user && chroot '/' bin/foo
In the "best" case, chroot(1) could not execute 'bin/foo' with ENOENT,
but in the worst case, chroot(1) would execute '/home/user/bin/foo' in
the case that exists - instead of '/bin/foo'.
Revert that second part of the patch, i.e., perform the chdir("/)
in the common case again - unless the new --skip-chdir option is
specified. Restrict this new option to the case of "/" arguments.
* src/chroot.c (SKIP_CHDIR): Add enum.
(long_opts): Add entry for the new --skip-chdir option.
(usage): Add --skip-chdir option, and while at it, move the other
to options into alphabetical order.
(main): Accept the above new option, allowing it only in the case
when NEWROOT is the old "/".
Move down the chdir() call after the if-clause to ensure it is
run in any case - unless --skip-chdir is specified.
Add a 'newroot' variable for the new root directory as it is used
in a couple of places now.
* tests/misc/chroot-fail.sh: Invert the last tests which check the
working directory of the execvp()ed program when a "/"-like
argument was passed: now expect it to be "/" - unless --skip-chdir
is given.
* doc/coreutils.texi (chroot invocation): Document the new option.
Document that chroot(1) usually calls chdir("/") unless the new
--skip-chdir option is specified. Sort options.
* NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention the fix.

accurate base for the subsequent adjustment, and move
the uid lookup within chroot, rather than having the overhead
of a separate `id` invocation.
* init.cfg (gcc_shared_): A new function refactored from tests.
