stat now outputs nanosecond information for time stamps even if
they are out of localtime range.
- stat -f --format=%T now reports "prl_fs" for a parallels file system.
-
sort, tail, and uniq now support traditional usage like 'sort +2'
and 'tail +10' on systems conforming to POSIX 1003.1-2008 and later.
The 2008 edition of POSIX dropped the requirement that arguments
like '+2' must be treated as file names.
+** Improvements
+
+ stat and tail now know about "prl_fs" (a parallels file system), and
+ "m1fs" (a Plexistor file system). stat -f --format=%T now reports the
+ file system type, and tail -f uses the more conservative polling for
+ "prl_fs", and inotify for "m1fs" file systems.

* Noteworthy changes in release 8.25 (2016-01-20) [stable]
