This tarball now passes on various systems, including the previously failed 
'diff3' .


However,
only on AIX, gnulib's "test-init.sh" fails (perhaps because of the recent 
update? though the error seems related to 'diff -U3').
Gnulib's test do not fail on most other systems (except minix, netbsd which were 
discussed before and deemed as not "show stoppers").
