Subject: coreutils: working but still incomplete patch

Package: coreutils
Version: 5.97-5.2
Followup-For: Bug #400467

Hi,
here is a ptahc that does implement IP address sorting.  It currently
only does IPv4 (though adding IPv6 would not be complicated).  What's
still missing is documentation and possibly configure checks for
inet_pton and ntohl.  Any chance something like this could be added?

Best,
  Norbert
