While compiling on cygwin (x86_64), gcc complains thus:

      CC xdiff/xemit.o
  xdiff/xemit.c: In function ‘is_empty_rec’:
  xdiff/xemit.c:163:2: warning: array subscript has type ‘char’ 
[-Wchar-subscripts]
    while (len > 0 && isspace(*rec)) {
    ^

A comment in the <ctype.h> header reads, in part, like so:

   These macros are intentionally written in a manner that will trigger
   a gcc -Wall warning if the user mistakenly passes a 'char' instead
   of an int containing an 'unsigned char'.

In order to suppress the warning, cast the 'char *' pointer 'rec' to an
'unsigned char *' pointer, prior to passing the dereferenced pointer to
the isspace() macro.

Hi René,

If you need to re-roll your 'rs/xdiff-hunk-with-func-line' branch, could
you please squash this (or something like it) into the relevant patch.

[A comment in the linux <ctype.h> header, says that the ctype-info tables ...
   point into arrays of 384, so they can be indexed by any `unsigned
   char' value [0,255]; by EOF (-1); or by any `signed char' value
   [-128,-1).
So, this is not a problem on linux.]

Thanks!

ATB,
Ramsay Jones
