If the source line changes then diff isn't a good enough tool. What is needed is a that these programs need to maintain a database that keeps a signature of each problem that is basically an AST of the area affected and is independent of source line and whitespace changes. Then you could annotate this database with information about false positives instead of your source. Such a database might even be able to keep new false positives from appearing if you duplicate the problem exactly in a different source file.
