The code does an implicit -kk where necessary but this doesn't work in
all cases (mostly due to the way the files are stored). -k-v might work
but it likely to have some of the same issues.
Ultimately the files are different and it's a lot harder than simple -k
options... it may require a custom diff to be able to ignore certain
differences (something I started working on but haven't done much with).
