No joke...  sorry...

	>What happened here?

I used "diff -c -b purdue purdue+" because I remembered reading in the
xbugs-report file:

The -b causes blanks and tabs to be obscured beyond recognition (I guess from
what happened to those patches.)

Yes, that has been done at about 6:30 this morning.  I use good ole' (diff
-c), and I even tested them!  So I hope they will work for you.  I got mail
from a studious person saying.

	>I had to use "patch -l -F3" to make your patches apply...

What a guy, thanks John.  And, sorry for the hastle.

Marty.
