Thanks a lot for the trick, Todd! Though I usually try to avoid
temptation to edit CVS/ files manually, it seems that in this case it's
indeed easier than replicating of the whole project into another directory
and using regular 'diff' to compare them.

Glad to hear things are going to be changed in the (hopefully near)
future.
