Good idea. Updated log message below.

--------------------

Estimated hours taken: 0.1

Some of the makefiles contain calls to "diff -u", however the 
-u option is not supported on most platforms, whereas the -c option is. 
The -c option has almost exactly the same effect.

These platforms have the -c option but not the -u option:
	Digital Unix
	Solaris
	SunOS
	POSIX

These platforms has both -c and -u options:
	IRIX
	Linux (GNU diff)

tests/
	Mmake.common
	warnings/Mmake
	invalid/Mmake

Changed "diff -u" to "diff -c".
