Thanks Tom.
It looks like the new RPM has not yet hit the mirrors, so I got it
directly from Koji at:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=23465
I installed:
diffutils-2.8.1-19.fc8.i386.rpm
I'll run the full make check-all in a bit (takes over an hour), but for
a quick check, I ran:
$ make test-Reg
running regression tests
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/marcs/R.Files/SourceCode/SVN/tests'
running code in 'reg-tests-1.R' ... OK
running code in 'reg-tests-2.R' ... OK

make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/marcs/R.Files/SourceCode/SVN/tests'
So at least the aforementioned issue has been resolved.
I added a comment to the above Bugzilla report, confirming that the -19
version seems to resolve the problem.
If anything else pops up, I'll post back.
Thanks again,
Marc
