Bug Description

When I use qdiff to show differences including changes a certain C header file, it would lock up completely and have to be forcefully killed.

I was able to strip most of the header file out and still reproduce the problem.

To reproduce the bug:

1. mkdir test
2. cd test
3. bzr init
4. bzr add CC2530_registers.h (save the file there first)
5. bzr ci -m "original"
6. echo foo >> CC2530_registers.h
7. bzr qdiff (LOCKS UP HERE)
