wrt generating file diffs, you should have a look at diffoscope :)

review:

trailing whitespaces:
  + debian/control:15
  + debian/rules:3

there is really no need to do that useless override_dh_auto_install,
just empty that target in d/rules, and write 'rfcdiff' in
debian/rfcdiff.install

Makefile contains an 'include ../Makefile.common', while the file is in
the same directory, guess it needs fixing?  once done so the
override_dh_auto_test and override_dh_auto_install can be removed
entirely.  This is a problem for upstream, please forward the issue.

stuff check-all-the-things tells me:

$ cme check dpkg
Warning in 'control binary:rfcdiff Depends:2' value 'diffutils': unnecessary unversioned dependency on essential package: diffutils

$ codespell --quiet-level=3
./changelog:178: refering  ==> referring

$ licensecheck --check=. --recursive --copyright . | grep -F 'with incorrect FSF address'
./copyright: GPL (v2 or later) (with incorrect FSF address)

please forward the last 2 to upstream.


The rest looks good, if you fix this few bits I'll upload it.
