FYI: I've just added this warning to coreutils' README file:
***********************
FreeBSD 5.0 `make test' infinite loop with /bin/sh
-----------------------
When building and running `make test' on a FreeBSD 5.0 system,
expect the tests/install/trap test to get stuck in an infinite
loop. That appears to be due to a bug in /bin/sh.
When you change the first line of the tests/install/trap script
to be e.g., #!/usr/local/bin/bash, the test completes normally.
