See if you can find a difference in the section order, segment order, symbol table, or some such, which might trigger lurking unexec bugs.  
Differences in the actual machine code or the length thereof are not going to be meaningful due to the number of changes in code generation. :-P

Looking at unexelf.c, I really want this to be a bug in it, because it's an evil file. :-)
