I forgot to add that I am not happy with this "centralized tear
down" step, even though I am reasonably happy with the "lazy set-up"
step.  I wonder why the remerge-diff related members have to exist
in the rev_info structure in the first place, instead of being in
the diffopt structure?  Moving them to diffopt may make the end
result much more pleasant to read.
