Would you please run this (from the top level):
make && env LC_ALL=C make -C tests/dd check TESTS=skip-seek
If that succeeds, then we'll know that the problem is locale-related,
making dd's use of ngettext malfunction.
If the above still fails, then please run this variant, which will
show, among other things, the output of running `dd --version':
make && \
env LC_ALL=C VERBOSE=yes DEBUG=yes make -C tests/dd check TESTS=skip-seek
Please make sure that the version information corresponds to
the version of the package that you're building. I get this,
since I'm building the latest from cvs:
make[1]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/cu/tests/dd'
dd (coreutils) 6.0-cvs
