+Please send comments and problem reports to <bug-gnu-utils@gnu.org>.
+
+If you have a problem with internationalization, you might be able to
+work around it as described in ABOUT-NLS by invoking `./configure
+--disable-nls'. Many of the problems arise from dynamic linking
+issues on non-GNU platforms (e.g. with the iconv library). Such
+problems tend to be shared by other GNU applications on these
+platforms, and can usually be fixed by carefully tweaking your non-GNU
+installation. If you have an older version of libiconv, please
+upgrade to the latest one, preferably libiconv-1.8 or newer.
+(libiconv-1.8 is not yet available as of this writing, but it should
+be out soon.) If the problem seems isolated to diffutils, though,
+please report a bug.
+
+This program requires a Standard C compiler (C89 or later); if you
+have an older K&R compiler, please install GCC first.
+
+If you make changes to the source code, you may need recent test
+versions of GNU build tools to regenerate the intermediate files. The
+following versions were used to generate the intermediate files in
+this distribution:
