Hello Cygwin'ers

is it known to you that `patch' does not apply `diff's output in most
cases ? It always looks like this.

 .
 .
 .
patching file `gdbm-1.8.0/gdbmerrno.c'
assertion "hunk" failed: file "/src/patch/patch.c", line 334
      0 [sig] PATCH 1001 stackdump: Dumping stack trace to
PATCH.EXE.stackdump
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

I was using the latest net release "shipped" with cygwin 1.1.4. But i
noticed this problem all he time i am using cygwin. That is why i got used
to use `diff' but `patch' on my linux box.
