This file is found in make-3.82 and autotools packages.

It runs forever some systems. Note below:

# TIME_STYLE="posix-long-iso" echo x`/home/doug/gentoo/bin/ls -L -d -n /` 
xdrwxr-xr-x 22 0 0 512 July 24 01:43 /
                       ^^^^

Now look at line 114

    Jul) month=July; nummonth=7;;

July will never match Jul and so the loop is infinite.

Regards
