Problem with checking in binary files

[Washum, Ron # PHX]

I have the combination of RCS Version 5.7 and diffutils 2.8.1 on a Solaris 9 box. The checkin function fails when attempting to check in a binary file.

 

After some further testing I found that the initial checkin does work properly, it fails when there is a previous version to compare against the new version with diff. This does not seem to be a problem on a Solaris 8 box. Is there a solution / workaround to this problem for Solaris 8 boxes?

 

Thanks

Ron
