Bug#464000: cmp: Please document that "cmp -l" outputs differing bytes in octal (fwd)

[Santiago Vila]

Hello.

I received this from the Debian bug system:

Subject: Bug#464000: cmp: Please document that "cmp -l" outputs differing bytes
    in octal

Package: diff
Version: 2.8.1-12
Severity: normal

This is documented in the full upstream info source, but not in the man 
page or "cmp --help".
Though I understand that the Debian diff package documentation is 
maintained separately from upstream because of DFSG issues, I sill like 
to consider this issue severity "normal" instead of "wishlist".
