Howdy,

This system is a Fedora 42 x86_64 version.

I have run diffutils-3.10/src/sdiff with NO problems. With diffutils-3.11/src/sdiff I get the following:

/tools/diffutils/diffutils-3.11/src# ./sdiff -w 111 mkc mkconfig
realloc(): invalid next size
Aborted                    (core dumped) ./sdiff -w 111 mkc mkconfig

Am I doing something wrong?

Best regards,

George...
