Snipped from diff.el:
;; This package helps you explore differences between files, using the
;; UNIX command diff(1). The commands are `diff' and `diff-backup'.
;; You can specify options with `diff-switches'.
So, altough diff.el is standard emacs, it is based on the external
program diff, which is standard on Unix varieties, but obviously not
on Win XP.
