I'm using
        diff -u0 file1 file2
in some automated tests.

Now it doesn't work anymore.
That I should use "-U 0" is ok, but numbers <3 are completely ignored:
        # diff -u -U 0 /tmp/wc/dir1/big_file /tmp/wc/dir2/big_file
        --- /tmp/wc/dir1/big_file       2006-03-23 21:19:36.000000000 +0100
        +++ /tmp/wc/dir2/big_file       2006-03-23 21:19:36.000000000 +0100
        @@ -9997,7 +9997,7 @@

        +%0000
         10001
         10002
         10003
This is a clear regression. If I ask for it, it should give no context.
