[4.5.8]
+* df now always displays under `Filesystem', the device file name
+ corresponding to the listed mount point. Before, for a block- or character-
+ special file command line argument, df would display that argument. E.g.,
+ `df /dev/hda' would list `/dev/hda' as the `Filesystem', rather than say
+ /dev/hda3 (the device on which `/' is mounted), as it does now.
* du can now process arbitrarily deep hierarchies (subject to virtual memory).
Before, it would segfault on hierarchies deeper than 20,000-30,000 levels.
* test now works properly when invoked from a set user ID or set group ID
