ls -1U dir arg ... now works again
* src/ls.c (print_dir): Emit "$dir_name:\n" *before* accumulating (and possibly printing) directory entry names. The bug was introduced in coreutils-7.0 via commit 8d974b00, 2008-07-30, "ls -U1 now uses constant memory". Reported by Julian Bradfield. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.

** Bug fixes
- truncate -s failed to skip all whitespace in the option argument in
- some locales.
+ ls -1U (with two or more arguments, at least one a nonempty directory)
+ would print entry names *before* the name of the containing directory.
+ Also fixed incorrect output of ls -1RU and ls -1sU.
+ [introduced in coreutils-7.0]
sort now correctly ignores fields whose ending position is specified
before the start position. Previously in numeric mode the remaining
part of the line after the start position was used as the sort key.
[This bug appears to have been present in "the beginning".]
