Looks like a context diff to me, I only diffed the files which had
changed, because the test machine is really slow (it is NOT named
"glacial" because it's so cool). I did a "make distclean" and then a full
recursive diff, which only took 46 minutes, and it's attached. I did a
--dry-run against the pre8-ac3 source and got no error messages, but the
last one seemed to work as well.

The benefit of a really slow test machine is that improvements are
magnified, so I can quickly see if a patch for performance does
anything;-)
