It's a surprise to me. Diff(1) works fine with utf-8 or any other encoding. It simply notes that the lines are different and prints the lines out. Admittedly, diffing utf-16 doesn't look very pretty but that's because my terminal is expecting utf-8 and diff is just dumping bytes.

Yeah, but we're talking about FileMerge, not diff. FileMerge finds differences (assuming line endings are to diff's liking), but doesn't display them correctly.

Hence the surprise.
