I forgot to say previously - thanks for the work on 22.1 guys. Anyway, the bug with emacs from CVS trunk (is this correct for 22.1???) updated 2006-06-15.
On Solaris 8 with a file under CVS, if I do C-x v = I get: /usr/bin/diff: illegal option -- L usage: diff [-bitw] [-c | -e | -f | -h | -n] file1 file2 diff [-bitw] [-C number] file1 file2 diff [-bitw] [-D string] file1 file2 diff [-bitw] [-c | -e | -f | -h | -n] [-l] [-r] [-s] [-S name] directory1 directory2 It seems vc-diff-internal is using -L flags for diff. Labels don't seem to be supported by Solaris 8 diff.
