[BTW, you shouldn't be using the textutils package anymore.
 It has been superseded by the Coreutils package (which also
 includes sh-utils and fileutils packages).

Thanks for the suggestion.
With the CVS sources, you get this:

  Usage: comm [OPTION]... FILE1 FILE2
  Compare sorted files FILE1 and FILE2 line by line.

  With no options, produce three-column output.  Column one contains
  lines unique to FILE1, column two contains lines unique to FILE2,
  and column three contains lines common to both files.

    -1              suppress lines unique to FILE1
    -2              suppress lines unique to FILE2
    -3              suppress lines that appear in both files
        --help     display this help and exit
        --version  output version information and exit
