 	tests: init.sh: work also with any non-GNU diff that supports -u
 	* tests/init.sh: Relax check for diff -u support.
 	Rather than checking for GNU diff via --version, simply check
 	for support for -u itself.  Useful at least on OpenBSD 4.9,
-	AIX 7.1, IRIX 6.5 and Solaris 10.
+	AIX 7.1, IRIX 6.5, and Solaris 10.
