For regular GNU "diff", the "-N" or "--new-file" flag is needed for
that.  "cvs diff" might also have an option for that; however, it may
require a "cvs add", which would, in turn, require CVS checking privileges.

"Makefile.in" is generated from "Makefile.am", so I'm patching
"Makefile.am" instead.

There were some C++-style // comments in it; some C compilers don't like
those, so I converted them to /* XXX */ comments.

I've checked in your changes.
