- coreutils-tests-aarch64-env.patch: Add patch to avoid false
  positive failures of the coreutils-testsuite on OBS/aarch64:
  work around execve() reversing the order of "env" output.

Subject: [PATCH] tests: avoid a FP on aarch64 when comparing env/printenv
output
The following test fails on aarch64 on openSUSE's OpenBuildService
due to glibc's execvp reversing the pointers of 'environ', i.e.,
the output of "env|tac" equals "env env" on that platform.
* tests/misc/printenv.sh: Use 'env env' to work around the behavior
on that platform.
While at it, fix the grep pattern which suppressed all environment
variables starting with an underscore "_" instead of "$_" (and
"$LD_PRELOAD") only.
