 Summary of the bug:

 Using a 20 hour audio mp4 file, try to make an fMP4 file (either HLS or
 DASH/HLS mode), using -codec copy to ensure there's no encoding being
 done. ffmpeg will take several hours to fragment the file.

 Compare this to Apple's HLS Tools: https://developer.apple.com/streaming/
 which is able to fragment in roughly 1 minute.

 How to reproduce:
 {{{
 % ffmpeg -i "$FILE.mp4" -codec copy -hls_time 0.975238095238095
 -hls_segment_type fmp4 -hls_flags single_file+append_list+split_by_time
 -hls_playlist_type vod "$FILE.m3u8"
