Let me take this one back.  Treating multiple copy destinations and
multiple copy sources differently is a bad idea.  It is easy for a
user to give "-R" option to "diff" to turn such a stupid patch into
"somebody brilliantly consolidated two copies of the same thing into
a single function", and we want to keep "diff" and "diff -R" output
symmetric.
