If you have the CVS tree locally mirrored with CVSup, say in
/home/ncvs, you can always use CVS like this:

	% cd /tmp
	% setenv CVSROOT /home/ncvs
	% cvs -R checkout -r RELENG_4 src
	% cd src
	% cvs -R diff -r RELENG_4_3_0_RELEASE

That will give you all the diffs from 4.3-RELEASE to 4-STABLE, which
will be quite a big patch-file!
