--- Comment #3 from fehmi noyan isi <fnoyanisi@yahoo.com> ---
Yes, that's correct but this also supports my previous comment.=20

The BSD licensed diff utility was imported from OpenBSD with 11.2-RELEASE a=
nd
there have been a few addition/improvements since then.=20

The manual page you display for 11.3-RELEASE and 11.4-RELEASE are for GNU d=
iff
utility (see the copyright section at the bottom of the manual pages).=20

I could not find it in the 12.0-RELEASE notes but I would assume the default
diff utility was replaced with the BSD diff(1) in 12.0-RELEASE (needs
confirmation).

After all, the current diff(1) utility in base is the modified/improved ver=
sion
of the diff program imported from OpenBSD.=20

At the moment, diff(1) does not implement -F/--show-function-line options. =
You
may want to request somebody to close this bug report and open a new one to
request -F/--show-function-line support to diff(1).

If you open a new bug report, it may be worthwhile to add it to this one.
