  | It looks like the only reason the test failed is because the
  | autotests want old style diffs, but your system has diff configured
  | to use unified diff? (diff -u). I don't remember this being the OOB
  | behaviour on alpine, but I haven't upgraded in a while.

I've submitted a pull request that may fix this test failure:
