There are 2 ways:

[If you're not a C coder] use svnlook changed to find out which files
have changed and create the diff yourself, or
[If you're a C coder or have those at hand] extend svnlook diff to use
the new APIs available to ignore whitespace.

If you choose (2), please provide your changes as a patch on dev@ so
they can be incorporated in newer Subversion releases.
