Ah, I really couldn't make much sense of the original post!

Well, if both md5sum and diff say the files are different, they must *be*
different. Or at any rate, the data returned from opening and reading the
files must be different.
There's probably some kind of textmode-translation-gone-wrong. Have the
filesizes grown? Are the mount modes different?
Oh, and did you know that md5sum takes --text and --binary flags on the
command line?
