Bug report: diff

The following used to work, but now does not:

diff -q --to-file=old foo.tex bar.tex

where old is a sub-directory of the current directory.

This always reports:

diff: old: No such file or directory

It's ok when only one file is listed:

diff -q --to-file=old foo.tex


cygcheck -c diffutils

indicates version 3.12-1.

cygwin is 3.6.3-1

Let me know if there is more info I can offer.
