2. 
3.

Actual Results:  
head complains about depreciated parameters

Expected Results:  
dlint should run without warnings

Head is part of the coreutils package

Thanks for the patch, but this can be handled by sed magic instead of patch (one less file to transfer during sync). Also, `tail +<number>` is deprecated too, I got quite a few errors regarding that when running dlint. Fixed that using sed too.

Also, I have added sys-apps/coreutils to RDEPEND, as you mentioned.

Thanks for reporting this, 1.4.0-r1 is in CVS now, should be hitting mirrors in few hours.
