Just a comment:  Looks to me like a frequent problem programmers
have with different versions of code.  Only answer is a human has
to look at it--when there is a difference, which version to keep
is a question a program cannot answer.  So I would look at tools
that put the files to be merged in adjacent screens with
differences highlighted.  Oh, these are not text files?  Maybe
you need to script something up to do this then, or reformat
them for the standard tools.
