Ok, advice noted, thank you. This is actually why I converted them to .csv and posted them on pastebin.com in the first place - to avoid attaching long logs that aren't diff-able. However I understand that native format is probably easier for direct inspection so I may host them on dropbox and post the link here instead, if anyone is interested in taking a look at them. Will sort that out later today. Also, Cyrille, thank you for your suggestion, I've looked at those links and I'm going to double-check the environment too.
