Something like:

   svn diff http://svn.freebsd.org/base/releng/7.1 http://svn.freebsd.org/base/projects/l2filter

However, while this answers your question, it's not as useful as you  
might hope; probably you are actually interested in the diff between  
when/where the branch was cut and what it currently has, as that is  
the patch that you'd want to try against whatever OS source code  
version you actually want to run.
