A few days after this bug report (apparently),
`compare-windows-get-window-function' was added:

commit 96e6fd3c155b1851e0acd477789535a45b8d3187
Author:     Juri Linkov <juri@linkov.net>
AuthorDate: Fri Dec 5 02:50:41 2014 +0200

    Compare with the most recently used window by default.
    
    * lisp/vc/compare-w.el (compare-windows-get-window-function):
    New defcustom.

This can be redefined by the user to respond to `C-u' and the like, so I
don't think there's anything more to do here, and I'm closing this bug
report.
