diff: illegal option -- a

For GNU diff, -a means to forcibly compare files even if they seem to
contain non-text bytes.  What's the corresponding Solaris option (and
rhetorically, why the heck did they drop -a)?

A look at the man page for diff doesn't show anything similar. Itdoesn't look like it wasn't in the diff for Solaris 10. I even checkSolaris 7 and there wasn't an equivalent option that I could find.
