In trying to use the diff files to upgrade from 3.2 to 3.3 to 3.4, a
context diff on the directories only reports the names of files that
exist in only one directory.  New files are not obtained.

Do a 'grep "^Only in" diff-file' to find the new and old files.

I am assuming that the existance of the diff files is to decrease traffic
on the internet.
