I sit in a dired buffer and type ESC =, to invoke dired backup diff.
It doesn't work; with debug-on-error set to 't, I get:

    Signalling: (wrong-number-of-arguments #<subr find-file-name-handler> 1)
      find-file-name-handler("/users/fp/partain/src/foo")
      diff-latest-backup-file("/users/fp/partain/src/foo")
      diff-backup("/users/fp/partain/src/foo" nil)
      dired-backup-diff()
      call-interactively(dired-backup-diff)

If you cannot reproduce this bug very easily, please ignore this report.
