The problem is that GNU make hasn't, up to now, required GNU diff; any diff will do. I don't really want to make GNU diff a prerequisite for running the regression test suite. Maybe the test suite should perform its own comparison, encoded in Perl, rather than running diff... but for 3.81 it seems easiest to figure out a way to get the test suite to determine the "fully qualified" pathname and use that in the base files, instead of the output of pwd. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
