Interdiffs are not working on some files
==============================================================================

# What version are you running?
2.5.7
Tried 2.5.9 too

The problem didn't exist in the 1.7.6 version (appeared after update)

# What's the URL of the page containing the problem?
/r/[review_id]/diff/[interdiff_id_1]-[interdiff_id_2]

# What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Comparison between two revisions
2. Taking a look at the files often gives me "only whitespace changes" diffs 
when there are other changes 


# What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
An interdiff showing me the changes, instead I only see whitespace changes.

# What operating system are you using? What browser?
Server : Suse 11.4. Browser : Firefox / IE11

# Please provide any additional information below.
You'll find attached a small git repo with files and diffs that reproduce this 
precise behaviour, a few screen, and the diffutils.py file that """fixes""" 
this problem.

I successfully """fixed""" this bug by using the 1.7.6 version of the 
get_chunks function (and the relevant called functions) in 
diffviewer/diffutils. It is interesting to note I had the exact same behaviour 
with the 1.7.6 code, and with get_original_file called repository.get_file() 
without cache_memoize.

Sorry for the messy patchwork that diffutils.py is ! I hope that can help you.
