I'd extract the two individual versions of the file and compare them
manually:

    svn checkout -r 495 wc1
    svn checkout -r 496 wc2
    cmp wc1/.svn/text-base/crashfmt.svn-base wc2/.svn/text-base/crashfmt.svn-base

Does 'crashfmt' have any svn:* properties set?

Did you 'svn up' before the second log command?
