bug#15077: Bug in Join

[CDR]

Dear Friends

The option -a 1 or -a 2 is not correct.
Suppose you have two comma separated value files with 10 records each,
joined on the first column. The second file has 6 records where there is no
match on the joining column (first).
Let's call the files today.txt and yesterday.txt

If you use this command
"join -t, -1 1 -2 1 -a 2 -o 2.1 today.txt yesterday.txt" it should give
ONLY the non pairing lines from yesterday. Instead, it prints all the lines
from yesterday.

I am copying here the contents of both files.
