   I've adapted the regexp from that function in the patch below, but
   since I don't have a test case, I'm not really sure about committing
   it.

   Thien-Thi, could you post the message that triggers this error, or
   the relevant bits of it?

I'd like to, but no longer have immediate access to that particular
message -- it might take a day or two to excavate (if at all).  However,
i do remember it was all on one line (no newlines, machine generated).

   diff [...]
   - ORIGINAL-HAIRY-REGEXP
   + ANOTER-HAIRY-REGEXP

Maybe this would be a good time to substitute a symbolic regexp?

                     => nil
