+       Fix a typo in description of size suffixes: s/GB/G/.
+       * doc/coreutils.texi (od invocation, head invocation, tail invocation):
+       Spotted by Bert Wesarg.
+
        * NEWS [6.9.90]: Mention the added feature that head, od, split and
        tail now accept the standard size suffixes (kB, M, MB, G, GB, and
        so on for T, P, Y, Z, and Y) on arguments to selected options.
