Subject: [PATCH] Fix mcview for diff files on systems that have no /bin/cat
 (like NixOS).

When opening .diff or .patch files mcview invokes /bin/cat. NixOS has no
/bin/cat (the path to cat looks like /run/current-system/sw/bin/cat).
However cat is still in PATH, so replace /bin/cat with just cat. This
should not affect other systems as /bin should normally be in PATH.
