The MSYS package has a modified version of diff that treats \r as white
space with the -w --ignore-all-space switch.

That's better than nothing, but I think Diff should ignore CR characters _by_default_, without any extra switches. That way, you won't need to hack scripts that test files produced on Windows against expected results that come from Unix.

This sounds good, it would save me having to put a dos2unix command or use special diff options.

Previously I tried to use a DJ diff.exe, but that did not work with the
rest of the testing process (if I remember correctly).  Using
dos2unix.exe did work, but then unlink was deleting my MSVC win32 make.exe
instead of a temp file.

Kind regards
JG
