I have been sending "context" difference listings because that is what
is specified for patches in the Emacs manual:

M-: (info "(emacs) Sending Patches")

   * Use `diff -c' to make your diffs.  Diffs without context are hard
     to install reliably.  More than that, they are hard to study; we
     must always study a patch to decide whether we want to install it.
     Unidiff format is better than contextless diffs, but not as easy
     to read as `-c' format.


Unfortunately, the SLIME manual does not document the preferred format
for difference listings in patches.  Could the primary developers come
to an agreement on what they prefer and add that to slime.texi?
