Thanks to some helpful members of the net (four of them so
far), I have got the answer to my question above, and now
have GNU diff 1.7 running.

The answer was to use either the alloca() that comes with
GNU EMACS, or to use the version of SCO Xenix 386 alloca()
posted by Chip Rosenthal to comp.unix.xenix back in March.

Thanks again to those who helped out.  (The answers arrived
within a day of my posting!)
