Coreutils build used to require a managed mount?

This is not an issue with coreutils-5.93, but the coreutils-5.3.0 source
won't extract without a managed mount due to some files that differ only
in filename case in the source tarball. There are workarounds, of course,
but for the future, this is something that needs to be put in the package
announcement, at least.
