Summary: diff in 'many variables' context: incorrect versions

Initial Comment:
If a diff markup is requested in a context where many variables can be selected (e.g. kernel browsing with architectures and sub-architectures enabled), the "version" selection step does not hand over the correct variable name/value to diff.

The final name/value retained may well be totally irrevelant to the architecture under scrutiny.

As a side-improvement, use the 'when' attributes to limit the number of proposed choices (in the message, since only the "active" variables are displayed in the header).
