Agreed. I always use --diff-cmd diff -x -up for this reason (and wish
that the svn.collab.net commit mails did as well, though that's an
orthogonal issue).

I think it would be reasonable to make svn's implementation compatible
with GNU diff's, though; the regexp it uses is /^[[:alpha:]$_]/,
whereas the patch is essentially /^[[:alpha:]0-9]/.
