Q.E.D. it's just just "GNU coreutils" it's a rewrite. Again I don't
think anybody is actually confused here, but you're free to suggest a
description change for the ebuild.

As for the binaries, IMHO gfoo seems ok, gnu-foo would be unambiguous
and nicely mirror uu-foo, but foo-reference doesn't make much sense.
