Nothing to do with cygwin1.dll 1.5 to 1.6?
Reverted to [prev] diffutils v.2.8.7-2 and this strange contradiction
went away (that is: all files, however accessed, were shown as identical
using diff -s, as they should be).
Upgraded, again, to [curr] diffutils v.2.9-1 and the problem came back:
identical files were reported to be different, using diff -s.
