Internal diff. viewer, ignore white space does not always work

I am using the internal diff. viewer to diff a file vs. the code in the database.

I have enabled the option 'Ignore white space', but it does not quite work as expected.

White space before a newline is not ignored.

If I have the code

Code:
abc<space><space><newline>
and

Code:
abc<newline>

the code is marked as different.

A special case of this is

Code:
<space><space><newline>
vs.

Code:
<newline>

i.e., I have a line with just spaces vs. a line with just a newline feed, this is also marked as different, even if white space should be ignored.

(I am using version 14.0.0.1955 (64 bit))
