coreutils is unlikely, since this is a shell builtin ;)

But i had already problems with a cross-compiled coreutils package. The main 
problem is that the configure script does a lot of runtime tests, which of 
course falls back to default assumptions when cross-compiling. The problem is 
that those assumptions are sometimes just plain wrong when using mintlib. The 
script checks for a glibc-based system, and mintlib would fall into that 
category most of the time, but isn't detected as such. The standalone pwd 
executable does not work for example when $PWD is not set.  Maybe bash (or 
whatever shell you tested) suffers from similar problems.
