The later is wrong and may fail on sizeof(char *) != sizeof(int)
machines. The patch has already been sent to and accepted by the
diffutils author, but the file is already off the vendor branch, so
correct it here in the meanwhile too.
comparing two files, where only one file is missing the final newline
character. This undoes revisions 1.3 and 1.4, returning 'diff' to how
it behaved before July 2000. We can do this now because our version of
'patch' was modified (just before 4.6-release) to understand what to do
with that line. This marker is the same one generated by 'diff' under
netbsd, openbsd, darwin, and linux (and any OS with "gnu-diff" installed).

diff output; there being no trailing newline caused it to bitch and
moan and ruin diffs. That's dumb, if I may say so myself.
Yes, this file is coming off the vendor branch. It hasn't been
updated in 6 years.
