Diff Bug
From: Raleigh F. Romine <ROMINE AT SRC-UNIX>

! dp = (struct direct *)malloc((unsigned)stb.st_size + sizeof (struct direct));
if (dp == 0) {

done();
--- 185,191 -----

}
fstat(0, &stb);
! dp = (struct direct *)malloc(stb.st_size + sizeof (struct direct));
if (dp == 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "diff: ran out of memory\n");
done();
