The two files being compared are not in fact, different. But I've noticed that
h5diff 1.8.8 fails when comparing H5T_STD_U32LE to H5T_STD_U64LE (see bold text
below). When I see that error message, I know it's going to be wrong.

Now if I use h5diff 1.8.7 to diff those same files, I get the correct answer
(and no complaint about datatypes):

I see this problem on both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows. Has anyone else seen it?
