Thank you for reporting that. I'll start with that first issue.
That is due to a now-erroneous test for busybox-specific timeout
program which used to require "-t" before the timeout value.
Now, it has aligned with coreutils, since the 31 December 2018 release
of BusyBox 1.30.0 (unstable).
I've fixed it with the attached patch, also just pushed to gnulib.
