i have a report where a change in the fuzz handling causes autodetection
failures in how to apply a patch
so start with this simple tarball:
wget http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=210551 -O t.tgz
extract it and enter the subdir:
tar xvf t.tgz
cd tripwire-2.3.1-2/
then grab the patch:
wget http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=210553 -O diff
and try to apply it:
patch -p0 -F3 < diff
with patch-2.5.9 and older, you'll get an error (since the files in question
are missing). with patch-2.6, the patch will "apply".
