I've made a new version of 'diffutils' (http://www.gnu.org/software/diffutils/)
available for installation. This is the most recent version of
diffutils from ftp.gnu.org . I've included a snippet from the diffutils
NEWS file showing changes since the last Cygwin release below.

* Noteworthy changes in release 3.2 (2011-09-02) [stable]
** Changes in behavior
--ignore-file-name-case now applies at the top level too.
For example, "diff dir inIt" might compare "dir/Init" to "inIt".
** New features
diff and sdiff have a new option --ignore-trailing-space (-Z).
** Packaging
The texinfo documentation no longer specifies "front-cover" or "back-cover"
texts, so that it may now be included in Debian's "main" section.
* Noteworthy changes in release 3.1 (2011-08-10) [stable]
** Bug fixes
diff no longer reports spurious differences merely because two entries
in the same directory have names that compare equal in the current
locale, or compare equal because --ignore-file-name-case was given.
* Noteworthy changes in release 3.0 (2010-05-03) [stable]
** Bug fixes
diff once again prints the required "\ No newline at end of file" line
when at least one input lacks a newline-at-EOF and the final hunk plus
context-length aligns exactly with the end of the newline-lacking file.
[bug introduced between 2.8.7 and 2.9]
** Changes in behavior
In context-style diffs, diff prints a portion of a preceding "function"
line for each hunk, with --show-function-line=RE (-F) or
--show-c-function (-p). Now, it trims leading blanks from such lines
before extracting a prefix. This is useful especially when a function
line is so far indented that the name itself would be truncated or not
included in the limited-width substring that diff appends.
diff once again reports a difference with the diagnostic
"Binary files A and B differ" when at least one of the files
appears to be binary. From 2.8.4 through diffutils-2.9, it printed
"Files A and B differ".
