Description David E. O'Brien freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2011-02-09 22:30:10 UTC 
	Running bsddiff with the "-N" option when there is a new zero-byte
	file causes bsddiff to segfault.  /usr/bin/diff and /usr/local/bin/gdiff
	(GNU diffutils 3.0) simply give no output for this case.

Fix: 

Unknown - have not looked at the code or core.
How-To-Repeat: 	$ cd /tmp
	$ mkdir -p x/1 x/2
	$ touch x/2/empty
	$ bsddiff -r -N x/1 x/2
	Segmentation fault: 11 (core dumped)

	$ bsddiff -N x/1 x/2
	Segmentation fault: 11 (core dumped)
