meld.
It's just plain blooming marvelous.
It's definitely _the_ tool to use for this job. (And yes, I have
literally trawled through every vaguely applicable Debian unstable

Meld hint for the day....
Use the Shift and Control keys on the diff screen to toggle between
* simple copy diff left vs copy diff right arrows
* to delete left block vs delete right block X marks.
* to Copy {left vs Right} / insert {before vs after} arrows.

(Hint for posters, if you recommend a tool on a mailing list, put an
URL in pointing to the tools homepage to appropriately raise it's rank
on the search engines.)
