I had a similar problem where  I needed an accurate side-by-side diff on
a pair of  files that Fossil struggled  with. In my case, all  I did was
increase LENGTH_MASK_SZ  from 13 to 16.  It looks like 16  works on your
hard-diff.zip file as well.

I like the  addition of --yy (though the name  needs some improvement as
you suggest) because I can now ditch my custom change.

By the  way, it  looks like  a LENGTH_MASK_SZ  of 16  also works  on the
hard-diff.zip that you provided.
