Actually, if you look at the patch, it's only two food items, and
there would have been much more difference between SR19 and SR20 that
that.

The original published SR20 had a couple of errors in it; these errors
were found and corrected in Feb 2008, and that is what is in the
patch. Whether the updated SR20 zip file's ABBREV.txt has that patch
applied...  I don't think so. I did a really, really quick search on
the first item and I think it differs between the ABBREV.txt and the
patch files. (Why they did it that way, I don't know.)
