    #564 is about ./configure telling the user to install diffutils
    to get a recent GNU patch, when in fact patch is not part of
    diffutils. And that was what ./configure told me. I don't know if
    the FreeBSD diff is a modified version, diff --version told me just
    "diff - GNU diffutils version 2.7", but my patch was old indeed.
    That leads me to conclusion that the bug crept back in somehow.

    The fact that svn built (I think I forgot to mention this) once I
    removed --disable-shared from the ./configure line.
