Hum, seems strange that this is needed. I see that the configure.ac of
diffutils 3.2 (currently in Buildroot) has AM_PROG_CC_STDC, it has been
removed since then. If diffutils uses C99 constructs, then it should be
specifying AC_PROG_CC_C99 in its configure.ac, I guess.

Of course, what you propose is a relatively simple workaround, but I
believe the real fix is in diffutils itself.

Best regards,

Thomas

Hi Thomas,
Thanks for the review and please ignore this patch.
I have no idea why I cannot reproduce this issue now.
I can build diffutils without this patch today.

Regards,
Axel
