* src/io.c (find_identical_ends): Fix huge performance bug that I
introduced in the 2001-11-25 change: the code to remove the
identical suffix also looked at the trailing sentinel, which meant
the common suffix length was always incorrectly calculated to be
zero. Problem and fix reported by Daniel Hipschman. Instead of
his fix, revert to the pre-2001 code.
* doc/diff.texi: Switch from GFDL 1.1 to 1.2.

* src/system.h (PARAMS, PROTOTYPES): Remove; no longer needed.
