sorry, you're right.. I said it backwards.   Instead, do this:
      cd /foo/tn5250-new
      diff -ur ../tn5250 .

The idea is that the files get listed as src/scs.c, src/scs2ascii.c etc
instead of tn5250-new/src/scs.c

Optionally, just use CVS to generated your patches with:

      cd /foo/tn5250-new
      cvs diff -uR > mypatch.diff
