No, an example where a modification to coreutils was open sourced by a commercial company that might otherwise not have.
The GPL has been reasonably effective in some cases like the Linux kernel and KHTML at getting companies to release their modifications. But I don’t see that as being significant for coreutils because a) most companies would have zero need to modify them, and b) they could just use the BSD versions if they really wanted.
