once you update to the latest gnulib, you may want to remove this redundant

I don't see that as a redundancy. Diffutils accesses the
file system directly, as well as via gnulib. If gnulib were
to change such that it didn't need to access the file system
(admittedly unlikely), then gnulib could drop the dependency;
but diffutils would still need it.
Then diffutils should explicitly include 'largefile' in its list of
required modules, as in:
diff --git i/bootstrap.conf w/bootstrap.conf
index 5aa783b..e6a76b4 100644

I still argue that it is wrong to duplicate AC_SYS_LARGEFILE if we are
explicitly depending on a gnulib module documented to guarantee that
same aspect.
