David,
you've just done right thing.
Do diff as:
diff -u old new

More things:
You have to mind, that objdump produces not only IAR assembler. It _must_ be 
capable to produce
any predefined type of output.

So, the changes like:
1826d1825
          && (section->flags & SEC_DATA) == 0
will force to output .data section for all targets and all options.
Therefore, please add 'IARFormat' check here.

~d
