+Svc_Conf_[ly].cpp.diff are use to patch their respective files in
+ACE_wrappers/ace.  They are used by Makefile in that directory, so
+users don't ordinarily need to be concerned with them.
+
+To updated Svc_Conf_l.cpp.diff:
+
+1) cd to ACE_wrappers/ace.
+2) Create the old version of the file in Svc_Conf_l.cpp.orig.
+   If you haven't created the new version (with make) after
+   update Svc_Conf.l, you can copy Svc_Conf_l.cpp to it.
+   Otherwise, you can retrieve it from the CVS repository.
+3) % make       #### to create the new version of Svc_Conf_l.cpp
+4) % diff -u Svc_Conf_l.cpp.orig Svc_Conf_l.cpp > ../etc/Svc_Conf_l.cpp.diff
+5) % rm Svc_Con_l.cpp.orig
+6) % cd ../etc
+7) % cvs commit -ko -m'updated diff file' Svc_Conf_l.cpp.diff
+
+And similarly for Svc_Conf_y.cpp.
