Not necessarily.  ls hardcodes its default representation for files
younger than 6 months to:

"%b %e %H:%M"

while date hardcodes its default representation to:

nl_langinfo(_DATE_FMT)

Sounds like the bug is in cygwin1.dll's nl_langinfo() function for
returning a date format with spurious commas.
