I cannot reproduce this here. Can you show a reproducible recipe
starting from "emacs -Q"?
Does this happen for any 2 buffers, or just for some?
When this happens, what do you see in the buffer *ediff-diff*?
The file names you show above are identical. Is this a typo, or do
you indeed compare a file to itself?
