+- The text file comparison scripts ``ndiff.py`` and ``diff.py`` now
+ read the input files in universal-newline mode. This spares them
+ from consuming a great deal of time to deduce the useless result that,
+ e.g., a file with Windows line ends and a file with Linux line ends
+ have no lines in common.
