Perhaps do context diff and submit it as a bugzilla attachment.

If you have checked the source code using svn and have the modified file
in place, do a 'svn diff' on the command-line or thru menu in
TortoiseSVN or whatever GUI you might be using.

If you've modified the file directly and have a copy of the original
somewhere (lets say the files are filename.py and filename.py.orig),
issue the following to get a context diff to stdout:

 diff -u filename.py.orig filename.py

On Windows you may need cygwin to be installed for the diff utility.


Cheers,
Doug
