Fixed non-conflict errors that occur when changes made to the local files are
the same as the changes made in the repository. This is often seen by
people with remote CVS trees that have applied their local patches to the
master site. a 'cvs update' will show bogus conflicts.

In diffutils 2.6 and 2.7, diff3 -A complains about identical overlapping
changes. They're different from the ancestor but not from each other...
Why bother? The patch below fixes this nonsense and preserves [B]ackwards
compatiblity with the -B flag (also --show-bogus-conflicts).
Party on...
