* cksum now accepts the --base64 (-b) option to print
    base64-encoded checksums.  It also accepts/checks such
    checksums.
  * cksum now accepts the --raw option to output a raw binary
    checksum.  No file name or other information is output in
    this mode.
  * cp, mv, and install now accept the --debug option to
    print details on how a file is being copied.
  * factor now accepts the --exponents (-h) option to print
    factors in the form p^e, rather than repeating the prime p, e
    times.
  * ls now supports the --time=modification option, to explicitly
    select the default mtime timestamp for display and sorting.
  * mv now supports the --no-copy option, which causes it to fail
    when asked to move a file to a different file system.
  * split now accepts options like '-n SIZE' that exceed machine
    integer range, when they can be implemented as if they were
    infinity.
  * split -n now accepts piped input even when not in round-robin
    mode, by first copying input to a temporary file to determine its
    size.
  * wc now accepts the --total={auto,never,always,only} option
    to give explicit control over when the total is output.
  * 'cp --reflink=always A B' no longer leaves behind a newly
    created empty file B merely because copy-on-write clones are not
    supported.
  * 'cp -n' and 'mv -n' now exit with nonzero status if they skip
    their action because the destination exists, and likewise for 'cp
    -i', 'ln -i', and 'mv -i' when the user declines.  (POSIX
    specifies this for 'cp -i' and 'mv -i'.)
