Error description

• 0) Tested with Synergy 7.2.0.2.001 on linux
  
  1) Create a new Insulated Development project.
  In this example, the project is called for example 'tres' and
  its objectname is:
  ##
  tres-1:project:2
  ##
  create a task
  create a new object:
  ##
  tres0.txt-1:ascii:1
  ##
  checkin the task
  
  
  2) Checkout a new version of this project, with the purpose
  Integration Testing
  The new version of this project is:
  ##
  tres-2:project:2
  ##
  create a task
  checkout the root directory
  Right click on the object 'tres0.txt-1:ascii:1' and and click on
  Cut
  to remove the object from the project
  Create a new object with the same name 'tres0.txt'.
  =? A new instance of 'tres0.txt' is created:
  ##
  tres0.txt-1:ascii:2
  ##
  
  3) Run a 'ccm diff -p..' to compare the 2 versions of the
  project:
  ##
  ccm diff -p tres-1:project:2 tres-2:project:2
  Project Compare: tres-1:project:2 : tres-2:project:2
  1c1
  ? tres-1
  ---
  ? tres-2
  ##
  
  Result:
  -The compare does not report the 2 instances of the objects
  'tres0.txt'
  
  For info, in the Java GUI, these 2 objects, with different
  instances, are reported in the Unique
   Members dialog.
  Therefore, the results are different between the CLI and the
  GUI.
