[bug-diffutils] bug#34259: --*-line-format results are different from the default.

[Peng Yu]

Hi,

I'd expect only the new lines from the script2.txt should be printed
in the 2nd command. But somehow what it actually prints is not. The
test files are on the following URL. Could please let me know what is
wrong here? Thanks.
