I have the (I believe) latest and greatest version of Patch,

	$Header: patch.c,v 2.0.2.0 90/05/01 22:17:50 davison Locked $
	Patch level: 12u3

But seem to have problems when a patch file attempts to create a new
file (compared against /dev/null).  After scanning the sources, it seems
that the code to handle this type of occurance is either missing or 
been obliterated.  When a new file is encountered, the program simply
asks for "Filename to Patch: " instead of creating the new module.

It appears that the question for the Filename occurs before the
system even knows that it is being compared against /dev/null.

Does anyone have a version of Patch that can add new files??

This is for a SCO Xenix 386 2.3.2 site (although I doubt it has anything
to do with that)

I've attempted contacting the authors (including Larry Wall) with no 
success.

Thanks for the information...
