Nope. It gives me the following, where the printf argument is written
textually but not interpreted (bash 4.2.45).
[33] $ quilt diff -pab --no-index -- failed
--- a/test.bin !~ (Files|Binary files) a/test\.bin and
b/test\.bin differ
+++ b/test.bin != ~

I'm quite puzzled, I must admit. Just in case, my patch is here:
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=collab-maint/quilt.git;a=blob;f=debian/patches/diff_exit_code;h=8c90d5384fa9962b71107b98eea145addd22514b;hb=HEAD
