I'll freely admit that I had to study the diff in order to understand this paragraph.

My I suggest something along those lines instead?
	Split the meaning of the `set` parameter that is passed to
	`emit_line_0()` to separate between the color of the "sign" (i.e.
	the diff marker '+', '-' or ' ' that is passed in as the `first`
	parameter) and the color of the rest of the line.
	This changes the meaning of the `set` parameter to no longer refer
	to the color of the diff marker, but instead to refer to the color
	of the rest of the line. A value of `NULL` indicates that the rest
	of the line wants to be colored the same as the diff marker.

Ciao, Dscho
