No, this was not the intended behaviour. I believe this could serve
as a prototype example of a screw-up. I really am very sorry.
I hope this one (new, below) is alright. *smiles feebly* It does apply
cleanly here, but as I may have shown, I am a _newbie_ at this,
so... Anyway, after having applied it here, 'diff book.old book.new'
produces nothing, so I _think_ it'll be alright.

Sure. Will do.

Hey, thanks for setting me straight on this. I really appreciate
that. Please get in touch with me if something should come up, I
want to get this right.
