Yes, exactly. The "Modified: " and "=====[...]" lines are clearly
intended to be some kind of header above the diff, so it looks really
confusing when it comes out after them instead (especially when there is
another file following in the output...).

Sorry, I'm not set up for building SVN. I've only ever used prebuilt
binaries. I'm willing to give it a go if nobody else has time, but
hopefully somebody else on Windows already has a suitable build
environment set up and can try the patch more easily.
