+dnl 'make compare' can be significantly faster, if cmp itself can
+dnl skip bytes instead of using tail. The test being performed is
+dnl "if cmp --ignore-initial=2 t1 t2 && ! cmp --ignore-initial=1 t1 t2"
+dnl but we need to sink errors and handle broken shells. We also test
+dnl for the parameter format "cmp file1 file2 skip1 skip2" which is
+dnl accepted by cmp on some systems.
