NAK: This runs `exe 'buffer #'` in every buffer. While switching to
the desired buffer 3 extra times isn't a problem, it's also not
correct.

You need something like:

    silent exe 'bufdo diffthis' | exe 'buffer '.tmp"

But at this point it seems like we are working around the current
organization of the code, when we could simply reorganize it.

Cheers.
