I've been afraid to answer "D" to the question (use maintainers new file, keep old file, show diffs, ...) ever since. :-) At the time, I asked for diffs twice (2 different diff options? it was a while ago), and it happened twice. So, to that extent it was reproducible. The supposed shell script (conf file) that is used in program startup most definitely had lines of diff output in it. I never did to try to track down why diff output got into the file. Since I keep fairly up to date on packages, I probably don't even have that package here anymore. I believe I observed this behavior on a different package than the Debian maintainer (Luigi) did. His last note to me mentions something about acidbase, I don't have that here.
