I am not quite convinced if this shallow copy is a safe thing to do.
Quite honestly at this late in the release cycle, as a band-aid, I'd
rather see a simpler revert than a change like this that we have to
worry about what happens if/when show_range_diff() _thinks_ it is
done with the opts and ends up discarding resources (e.g. "FILE *")
that are shared with rev->diffopt that would still have to be used
later.
