Pushed.

    http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnulib.git/commit/?id=1721cf06d9

Just after doing that I went to add a slightly different test of
ls -v in coreutils, but was surprised by this:

    $ printf '%s\n' a a~ a.~1~ a.0 |src/sort -V
    a~
    a
    a.~1~
    a.0

I would have seen this if I'd looked more carefully at your test case,
once I restored the two removed entries.

I do see how this makes sense, and will test for this behavior.
Just wanted to note it here.
