I tried running your patched diff-prs against an identical
file.  Each field was printed:

[13:31:39] address@hidden (734)$ diff-prs

I don't believe this is the behavior we want.  That's not to
say the current version isn't buggy:

[13:32:23] address@hidden (739)$ /usr/lib/gnats/diff-prs

Could you take another stab at it?  I'm not too versed in
awk at the moment.
