/* CVS 1.9 and similar versions seemed to have pretty weird handling
   of -y and -T.  In the cases where it called rcsdiff,
   they would have the meanings mentioned below.  In the cases where it
   called diff, they would have the meanings mentioned in "longopts".
   Noone seems to have missed them, so I think the right thing to do is
   just to remove the options altogether (which I have done).

   In the case of -z and -q, "cvs diff" did not accept them even back
   when we called rcsdiff (at least, it hasn't accepted them
   recently).

   In comparing rcsdiff to the new CVS implementation, I noticed that
   the following rcsdiff flags are not handled by CVS diff:

	   -y: perform diff even when the requested revisions are the
		   same revision number
	   -q: run quietly
	   -T: preserve modification time on the RCS file
	   -z: specify timezone for use in file labels

   I think these are not really relevant.  -y is undocumented even in
   RCS 5.7, and seems like a minor change at best.  According to RCS
   documentation, -T only applies when a RCS file has been modified
   because of lock changes; doesn't CVS sidestep RCS's entire lock
   structure?  -z seems to be unsupported by CVS diff, and has a
   different meaning as a global option anyway.  (Adding it could be
   a feature, but if it is left out for now, it should not break
   anything.)  For the purposes of producing output, CVS diff appears
   mostly to ignore -q.  Maybe this should be fixed, but I think it's
   a larger issue than the changes included here.  */
