Yes, by reusing the line hashing and comparison from xdiff/ we can ensure that we will use consistent comparison function, and the thing we need to focus on will become how correctly the caller uses the xdiff interface. This looks much better than the previous one. Eric's comment on the function parameters is right. We keep them in sync with the naming convention of xdiff/ as long as they are still part of xdiff layer, and the convention there is that the lines being compared are l1[] and l2[] whose lengths are s1 and s2, if I am not mistaken (well, I am not, as I just touched the function there during my lunch break ;-).
