As far as I've seen TortoiseMerge does three-way merges fine (not
sure if you need three-way comparison exactly) - it just displays
them slightly different.  It shows two panes with the two versions
to be merged and it shows the differences (all inclusions, deletions
and changes) between them and the base version in those two panes
instead of showing a third pane for the base revision alone.  It
shows a third "merged" pane which is manually editable also.  This
is pretty much what I've seen with KDiff3 where only the view of the
base common ancestor is merged into the view of the two versions to
be merged.
