This makes sense, but "--diff-algorithm=patience" would want to do
the same, I suspect, so the loop would want to become a little
helper function "clear_patience_anchors(options)" or something like
that.

This may be too little to matter, but I'd find

	printf "%s\n" a b c >pre

vastly easier to read.  Or perhaps just use

	test_write_lines a b c >pre
