* src/ls.c (print_color_indicator): Test for S_IFREG first, rather
than having the code test for all of the other types first. Hoist the set-uid/gid-testing code "up" into this new block. Classify any other type of file (e.g., S_TYPEISSHM, etc.) as C_ORPHAN, not as C_FILE. * doc/coreutils.texi (What information is listed): Mention that missing pieces of information are marked with "?". From Paul Eggert.
