Fascinating.  I'll bet that the problem is that you're not opening the
files in binary mode, so the .read() is hitting an EOF (byte 26) early
in both files, and this prefix is the same.  You can check this by
doing 'data1=open(filename1).read() ; data2=...' and then comparing
data1 and data2.  

In that case, the fix is to use open(filename1, 'rb').
