Unfortunately, that was exactly what I needed to do.  Not in a theoretical 
sense, but a very practical one.

Only in hindsight do I realize that I could have increased the context, 
but that was not easily possible with the way I drive diff-files via 
run_command().

Oh well, another iteration.

Ciao,
