A user of our RCP app reported the following exception with no steps to reproduce.

It seems that ApplyPatchOperation created a FileDiff containing a null newPath, and that calculateFuzz was unable to deal with this situation. I'm not sure how to construct a patch that results in a null path, but I suspect a compare bug since the object was constructed by Eclipse compare code and that's where the exception was thrown.
