Thanks. I've made the first "release" (2.6.17-rc1) with the new built-in 
diff, let's see if somebody has any issues.

But just the fact that I could do an almost 24MB diff (6MB compressed) 
with 738 _thousand_ lines in about 4 seconds is damn nice. The script I 
use to cut releases (logs, diffstats, tar-files etc) used to take a long 
time with BK, these days it's a couple of seconds.
