Which attached patch? Do you refer the grep issue here?

This is the PKGBUILD file we use to build the Arch Linux package:

https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/diffutils/-/blob/main/PKGBUILD

Note that we have set `options=('!lto')` to make the build tools disable lto.

According to our build tools (devtools) we set `LTOFLAGS="-flto=auto"` when
building with lto:

https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/devtools/-/blob/master/config/makepkg/x86_64.conf#L50

We are suffering these build issues with lots of gnu tools (including grep,
which you fix already; and gzip) since switching to building from git. This
now includes running `bootstrap`. Probably this is caused because newer
autotools generating a different configure script.
