Currently RCS uses GNU diff's -L option. That option has been undocumented since diffutils 2.8 (released in March 2002) and the option is intended to be replaced sometime soon with a different meaning. Can you please fix RCS so that it uses "diff --label" instead of "diff -L"? That will make RCS immune to this planned change. Thanks.
