[PATCH v3 1/3] Demonstrate a bug in --word-diff where diff.*.wordregex is "sticky"

From
Johannes Sixt <j6t@kdbg.org>

Message-ID

In-Reply-To
<7vsjhboujp.fsf@alter.siamese.dyndns.org>

The test case applies a custom wordRegex to one file in a diff, and expects that the default word splitting applies to the second file in the diff. But the custom wordRegex is also incorrectly used for the second file.

Changes in this round, where I do not resend 2/3 and 3/3:
- Use test_unconfig.
- Use compare_diff_patch to check the result.
- Fix a broken && chain at the end of the last test.
- Name the files a.tex and z.tex as per your suggestion.
