ybiC has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
The following chunk is intended to parse 2 logfiles for their diff, and write the results as a third file. One origianl logfile
contains combined STDOUT+STDERR and the other contains only STDERR.

But it doesn't do that at all. 8^( Rather, the resulting (small-relative-to-either-original log) file contains an out-of-order hodgepodge from both originals.
What, praytell, am I doing wrong here? davorg's Array::Compare doesn't look to do what I need. I've looked at bikeNomad/Dominus' Alorithm::Diff, but don't make heads or tails of it.
