I just confirmed this on my XP SP3 system. I initially got similar behavior to
what Angelo and Robert reported, but it doesn't happen if I export TMPDIR=/tmp
before running patch.
Indeed!
On my system TMPDIR isn't defined by default; instead TMP and TEMP point
to $USERPROFILE/Temp. Setting TMP or TMPDIR to /tmp, works. Instead
pointing TEMP to /tmp does not, i.e. 'patch' creates foo.txt with '+'.
Ciao,
Angelo.
