It was reported [1] that the uniq command suffered from a segfault when processing input streams that contained extremely long strings. This flaw is due to the inclusion of the coreutils-i18n.patch. SUSE has fixed this by fixing the patch. The changes can be seen here [2]. (There is probably e better place to get the patch, but I don't know where).
