[Rdiff-backup-bugs] "--compare-hash-at-time" bug?

Hi,

I'm testing "rdiff-backup-1.3.1" on WinXP and I have detected that results of the "--compare-hash-at-time" command may depend on the contents of the files to be backed up.
This is my simple test:

we are backing up "dos" dir (see the attachment)

    rdiff-backup-1.3.1.exe dos backup

and then "unix" dir

   rdiff-backup-1.3.1.exe unix backup

The only difference between the "any.hpp" files is that the "dos\any.hpp" is a DOS-style text file while the "unix\any.hpp" is a UNIX-style text file.

Now we are trying to do "--compare-hash-at-time".

The command
   rdiff-backup-1.3.1.exe --compare-hash-at-time 0B unix backup
prints
   No changes found.  Directory matches archive data.

The command
   rdiff-backup-1.3.1.exe --compare-hash-at-time 1B dos backup
prints
   metadata the same, data changed: any.hpp

So it seems it doesn't work properly for the "dos\any.hpp" file.
Is it a bug?

Thank you.
