Confirm your web server is not running in a chroot or jail environment which might not look the same as your shell.

This is actually a problem with the FreeBSD ports tree, not with Mediawiki. I've filed the appropriate bug report, which can be viewed at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/127953, and will resolve this one.

As a temporary fix, merely deleting www/mediawiki/files/patch-index.php is enough:
Found GNU diff3: /usr/bin/diff3.
