Example null-change edit to [[Belfast]]:

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Belfast&diff=498122258&oldid=498122204

The above edit was made 2012-06-18T04:03:02‎ (UTC), duplicating the
2012-06-18T04:02:27‎ (+880bytes) of a vandalism edit made 2012-06-18T04:01:58
(-880bytes).

The 04:03:02 edit is currently shown on a watchlist as incorrectly having +880
bytes compared with the 04:02:27 edit (even though the page text is identical).

The zero byte difference is similarly shown incorrectly as +880bytes on
[[Special:RecentChangesLinked]]:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:RecentChangesLinked&from=20120618040157&target=Talk%3ABelfast
(and presumably on [[Special:RecentChanges]]

The edit is correctly shown on the revision history as having zero byte
difference: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Belfast&action=history

My guess is that the 1.20wmf4 rollout in the past few hours may have corrected
the byte-difference in the history page but has failed to correct the
differences on watchlists and recentchange lists.

Of course, the above example (being made prior to this evening's rollout) gives
no indication of whether wmf4 is now successfully preventing further
zero-edits!
