Is the output of ls -l supposed to be aligned as far as the timestamp and 
filenames columns are concerned with coreutils 4.5.3 that comes stock with 
RHEL? Currently, ls -l produces varying lengths of columns based on the 
length of the owner and group names, making it hard to read in long lists.

I saw back in 2000 this patch:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-fileutils/2000-11/msg00015.html

The output that this patch produces is what I am accustomed to in older 
fileutils. Just want to see if this is supposed to be applied to more recent 
coreutils releases, or if I should be bugging Red Hat to patch their 
coreutils package.
