I also considered it. The advantage is that is shows that this intentionally differs from test_cmp. > The windows folks can then use cmp inside test_cmp_bin() and all others ... would use cmp as well because it is better suited for the task than diff -u. So test_cmp_bin would be just an alias for cmp, on all platforms. Doesn't that sound weird?
