The large discrepancy was dealt with by doing a full rescan of the
network share.  The remaining differences are those I reported
subsequently, viz:
Linux    4,449 albums with 65,721 songs
Windows  4,452 albums with 65,795 songs


Why should a scan across a network share yield a different result -  if
networking was that unreliable corporate networks would be unworkable. 
The files are wither there or they aren't.  The bug / fault must lie in
the software?

Version info as follows:
6.5.2 - 12047 - Windows Server 2003 - EN - cp1252
6.5.3 - 12232 - Debian - EN - iso-8859-1

Guess I'll update the Windows instance, do a full rescan and see
whether there are any remaining differences.
