(emacs-version"22.0.50.1") When one uses
  = runs the command dired-diff
      which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `dired-aux.el'.
The half window given isn't big enough to see much diff output, at
least for me.
Instead of splitting the window in half, it be possible to have diff
  take over the whole window, like man's bully mode.
The problem must be in the inflexible
      (display-buffer buf)
in the diff function.

`C-h f display-buffer' describes how flexible it really is.  All you
should need is:

(setq same-window-buffer-names
       (cons "*Diff*" same-window-buffer-names))
