diffutils (2.8.1-11) unstable; urgency=low
* Changed default value of _POSIX2_VERSION in lib/posixver.c to
199209 to not break backwards compatibility (Closes: #295421).
People should be encouraged to set _POSIX2_VERSION="200112" in
the environment, see what breaks, and fix it, as this change
should be reverted some day after the release of sarge.
