[comp.sources.bugs] v05i077: gnu diff for MSDOS

mah@hpuviea.UUCP (Michael Haberler) (12/13/88)

If you have a free() which overwrites malloc()'ed storage, like Microsoft
C, then comment out the statement

	free(inf[dir_arg].name);

around line 497 of file diff.c. Otherwise, if the second file argument to
diff is a directory, the filename in a context diff gets mangled.
