   It is easy enough if you only have one directory, then you just use
   rcsdiff.  The only problem is, rcsdiff doesn't have a -r switch!  So,
   what about making a patch from multiple directories?

A simple way is the (Bourne) shell command:
	rcsdiff `
		find . -name '*,v' -print |
		sed 's|,v$||; s|RCS/||' |
		sort
	`
For a more complete solution, you can use CVS (also distributed by the FSF).

   Also, what's the status of rcsclean in 5.6?

The same as in earlier versions of RCS: it's experimental.
The source is available, but the program is not installed by default.
