The "-p" flag isn't available on diff.  I suspect you're thinking of
either "gdiff" or some other OS.

In any event, I know that GNU diff -p is common for most open source
reviews, but I can't say this issue has _ever_ bothered me with ON.  I
think if you know the code well enough to do a decent review of it or
if you're at least looking at the source itself in another window,
then the context and line numbers are sufficient.
