+recentchanges.pm sets the template variable HAS_DIFFURL to 1 based solely on whether or not diffurl is defined. I found that diffurl was defined, but empty. The recentchanges template depends on this for recentchangesdiff to properly function -- diff toggling is dependent on HAS_DIFFURL evaluating to false. Adding a check for a non-zero length diffurl fixed the issue for me. A patch against ikiwiki-3.20121212 is as follows:
