Not meaning to beat on you, but - if somebody else patches the same file
while you are working on it, it makes garbage of your diff.  For a
project as big and open as Wine, it is only common sense and common
courtesy that we use diff -u.  As well as + and - to show what changed,
that has also context lines so patch can have some idea if it is FI
adding lines where they belong.  Besides, Alexandre prefers it.
(From <wine>/README, which I think we should all read now and again :-)

"
If you add something, or fix a bug, please send a patch ('diff -u'
format preferred) to julliard(a)winehq.com or to the
wine-patches(a)winehq.com mailing list for inclusion in the next
release.
