I've committed the following fix to the emacs-26 branch.  I'm closing
the bug.

@Michael: This patch should apply cleanly to your Emacs 26.1 version (in
directory .../emacs/lisp/progmodes).  If you apply it, please
byte-compile the file before using it.  (If you want any help with the
patching and/or byte-compiling, feel free to send me private email.)



commit 9078f34e84178553cd59bc03ac1b58cb56038436

    Fix a loop in c-fl-decl-start.  This fixes bug #34186.
    
    * lisp/progmodes/cc-mode.el (c-fl-decl-start) In the pair of operations
    c-syntactic-skip-backward and c-forward-syntactic-ws, ensure the latter
    doesn't come back to the position before the former, and break out of the
    enclosing loop if it does.
