I had a similar problem and it turned out that the diff that came on my
system didn't propperly support RCS. I got a copy of GNU-diff (from osu-cis)
and that fixed the problem.

diff3 from GNU didn't work (for me) so merge and rcsmerge still don't work,
but...

My system is ISC 386/ix 2.0.2 (System V 3.2.1)


Hope this helps???
