            Bug ID: 213510
           Summary: csplit does not work any more
           Product: Base System
           Version: 11.0-STABLE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs at FreeBSD.org

I am generating diffs of multiple files into a single output stream which
consists of multiple sections looking like this:

--- ./accessibility/jovie/Makefile.ORIG 2016-08-26 17:51:07.219458267 +0200
+++ ./accessibility/jovie/Makefile      2016-08-26 17:48:41.413457178 +0200

I now want to split this stream using csplit:

csplit -k -n 3 - '/^[-*][-*][-*] .*\.ORIG/' '{1000}'

This produces files xx000 to xx998 of size 0, and file xx999 with the following
contents (one line only):

--- ./accessibility/jovie/Makefile.ORIG 2016-08-26 17:51:07.219458267 +0200

This worked correctly in 10.3.
