The patch no longer applies cleanly -- do you have an up-to-date version
of Tino's patch in your tree, by any chance?  Or did you just try it
then, and then back it out again?

Looking at the commit history for ediff, it doesn't really look like we
have any ediff domain experts to evaluate the patch, which makes it hard
to decide whether to try to apply the patch or not.
