I don't have libtirpc in git so I'm submitting a text patch. Sorry for any

Thanks much,

An ed-script diff is practically useless; without context, it is too easy to
misapply the patch if the file has been edited differently in the meantime.
ALWAYS use 'diff -u' (what git does by default) or 'diff -c' when generating a
patch, so that it has proper context.
Also mandatory to add -p, --show-c-function for patches, and in general for
directory or recursive patch diffs -N, --new-file so new files are diffed as if
against an empty file; --strip-trailing-cr is useful if some files may have CRs.
