Thanks for reporting this.
The symptoms are of a bug in the test suite, not in gzip itself,
so I don't think we need to worry about gzip going bad on your
platform. Still, it'd be nice to fix the bug.
Can you show us the process tree when bash is looping?
That is, there's a 'make', and underneath that there's
a 'bash'; but are there other 'bash'es underneath that,
and which one is looping? That would help us figure out
whether the bug is in the test suite files (tests/init.sh,
tests/help-version) or in the Automake machinery that
invokes the tests.
Is it possible to run 'lsof' or equivalent, to find out
which files the looping process has open, and the offsets
into those files?
