FYI: I use "ediff" mode under emacs for this all the time and I am
very happy with this tool.  This mode handles directory trees and
three-way merges as well.  And, if I have to massage the code a tiny
bit after applying a diff, I can just resort to using the emacs
commands that I know very well at this point.
