The given script is neither reliable (two different programs can give
the same -do output -- for example 16#1# will look the same as 9#1#))
nor is the differences that you get very useful if there is no match
(line numbers are wrong ...)
The output of course is not useful in doing a patch either.
So while this script has some value as an approximate check, it does
not obviate the utility of a more intelligent Ada diff program!
