I believe the new --diff-command option (since version
1.0.7pre1) can do this. I is used as:

  darcs diff --diff-command "tkdiff %1 %2"

and can be put in one of darcs' defaults files to always have
darcs use tkdiff to do the diff.

But diff (and tkdiff) can't show all meta information about
changes that 'darcs changes' can show, like file renames and
token replaces.
