f8972f58e8 Fixed non-conflict errors that occur when changes made to the local files are
the same as the changes made in the repository.  This is often seen by
people with remote CVS trees that have applied their local patches to the
master site.  a 'cvs update' will show bogus conflicts.

Obtained from: CVS mailing list, Stig<stig@inse.com>

In diffutils 2.6 and 2.7, diff3 -A complains about identical overlapping
changes.  They're different from the ancestor but not from each other...
Why bother?  The patch below fixes this nonsense and preserves [B]ackwards
compatiblity with the -B flag (also --show-bogus-conflicts).

    Party on...

Subject: man pages for diff et al.

I finally got tired of not having man pages for diff and friends, so I
edited the appropriate sections of the texinfo manual into man format.
