Thank you for mentioning the bug-gnu-utils@ vs. bug-diffutils@ problem.
I've adjusted it in both README and in the texinfo documentation
from which that web page is generated.  See attached.

The original problem with diff-vs-diff3 in the man page, it is fixed
as far as I can see:

  $ man man/diff3.1|col -b|tail|grep info.diff
              info diff3
k.txt (text/plain, 1.6 KB)
