I must misunderstand what people are reporting about the checksum errors in benchmarking tools. Are the benchmarking tools validating the MD5 checksum of the binaries provided by Coreutils? Wouldn't that be expected for the checksums of the Coreutils binaries to change, even just between OS releases even? Or are they saying that the Coreutils written in Rust are non-deterministic in the checksums they produce? That would be a huge bug indeed.

    The utils are producing incorrect values.

    Ok, yeah that's a pretty significant bug.
