Perhaps the inner diff can be done with the usual funcname/xfuncname
logic so that the real function name of the payload is on the @@
lines (they are internally called "hunk header" lines, I think).

And then the outer diff (i.e. the one that compares two inner diff
output) can use a special funcname pattern that says "treat the
lines that begin with '@@ ' as the function name line", instead of
(or in addition to??) the logic that says "lines that begin with
'diff --git' have interesting information" which led to a misleading
piece of information in the range-diff output under discussion,
perhaps?
