I think that adding an email regardless would be good

Yes, now's a good time to revisit the decision in 2013 to remove the bug-reporting email address[1]. Plus, the current code is confusing.

How about the attached coreutils patch? It simplifies the code and goes back to the old way of doing things, which includes outputting the bug reporting address.

If this doesn't generate the output we want, surely we should change Gnulib's emit_bug_reporting_address rather than try to reinvent it.
