Sam,
I haven't gotten any more feedback, and I believe I've addressed
all previous feedback.
As for the ChangeLog, here's some information about history and
recent changes. I can put this in the patch/script if desired.
CHANGELOG:
2008-06-24 - Tim Bird <tim.bird@am.sony.com> - add usage function,
add -m feature for merge-style output, use .config and .config.old
by default, improve command line handling
~2007 - Tim Bird - re-format code for internal use at Sony
~2006 - Matt Mackall - create original diffconfig tool as part of
bloatwatch project
Diffconfig is a simple utility for comparing two kernel configuration files.
See usage in the script for more info.

+
+Diffconfig is a simple utility for comparing two .config files.
+Using standard diff to compare .config files often includes extraneous and
+distracting information. This utility produces sorted output with only the
+changes in configuration values between the two files.
+
+Added and removed items are shown with a leading plus or minus, respectively.
+Changed items show the old and new values on a single line.
+
+If -m is specified, then output will be in "merge" style, which has the
+changed and new values in kernel config option format.
+
+If no config files are specified, .config and .config.old are used.
+
+Example usage:
+ $ diffconfig .config config-with-some-changes
+-EXT2_FS_XATTR n
+-EXT2_FS_XIP n
+ CRAMFS n -> y
+ EXT2_FS y -> n
+ LOG_BUF_SHIFT 14 -> 16
+ PRINTK_TIME n -> y
