Yes, the gnu diff (which is what linux and cygwin use) supports
--strip-trailing-cr, which would be a more specific arg than -w to use.  Does
msys not support -w?  Which diff is failing as is?

Hrm.. see also the bug I filed earlier today:
   http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=4833

I couldn't decide if I wanted to consider it a bug that the map file is being
generated without being asked for or not.  Either way, it's yet another
inconsistency between linux and windows that should be considered for cleanup at
some point.  I'll add -map nul to the test suite since it certainly isn't adding
value there and is littering the wrong directory with map droppings.

Thanks,
Brad
