Makes sure that the diff line adding the BUG is not immediately
preceded by the diff line removing the BUG. Or in other words,
avoids false positives when existing BUG is edited.

v2: Sent the incomplete version out...

Are we interested in this?

Yes. Sorry, I've updated these lines so you'll need to rebase, I'm
afraid.

I'd also be fine with comparing the results of $(grep -c '^\+.*\WBUG)
and $(grep -c '^\-.*\WBUG) and complaining if there are more +'s than
-'s. But your stricter version is fine too.

BR,
Jani.

The version above doesn't really avoid all the issues, though; for 
example if the edited BUG spans multiple lines, or if the pattern 
spotted (first added line containing a word beginning with BUG) is in a 
comment or string, or what's actually happened is that some code has 
been moved from before an existing BUG() to after or vice-versa, but 
diff thinks you've deleted the old BUG() and added a new one :(
