I like the last option, except that I'd use "\n" as the end marker, and
no start marker.  Many people won't even notice the extra blank line.

Come to think of it, this is what we already do for the non --diff
case: append \n before the separator.  (Presumably to account for
svn:log text that does not already end in a newline.)  So this isn't
even a new idea.
