I've seen something which sounds like this as well. I see it
reproducibly with:

emacs -Q
(setq special-display-regexps '(".*-diff\\*"))
(add-to-list 'minor-mode-map-alist
               `(vc-mode keymap
                         (menu-bar keymap
                                   (VC menu-item "VC" ,vc-menu-map))))

Then I visit a file under version control, make some changes, then
select VC->Revert to Base Version from the menu-bar. A frame with the
diffs gets popped up, as well as a dialogue box saying "Discard
Changes? Yes No". The diff frame is empty of mode-line and buffer
contents.

This is with:
