eliding duplicate bind mounted entries.

** Improvements
All utilities now quote user supplied arguments in error strings,
which avoids confusing error messages in the presence of '\r' chars etc.
+ md5sum now ensures a single line per file for status on standard output,
+ by using a '\' at the start of the line, and replacing any newlines with '\n'.
+ This also affects sha1sum, sha224sum, sha256sum, sha384sum and sha512sum.
+
dircolors now supports globbing of TERM entries in its database.
For example "TERM *256color*" is now supported.
