+From 170be4023bbf9e9698a709e03265945588ac8e01 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
+From: Robert Yang <liezhi.yang@windriver.com>
+Date: Tue, 26 Nov 2013 00:21:50 +0800
+Subject: [PATCH] doc/coreutils.texi: Use '@item' instead of '@itemx'
+
+Use '@item' instead of '@itemx' in several places, as Texinfo 5 refuses
+to process an '@itemx' that is not preceded by an '@item'.  Ensure that
+node extended names in menus and sectioning are consistent, and that
+ordering and presence of nodes in menus and in the actual text are
+consistent as well.

+Upstream-Status: Backport [From: coreutils.7620.n7.nabble.com, bug#11828]
