OK! The --no-grafts + --keep-failed combined did the trick, it now
produced the -check suffixed output.

There are differences regarding the number of links on many files; I'm
not sure this matters as it could be related to how the daemon optimizes
disk space in its store:

There are also difference found using readelf, for example:

These seems to have to do with Cython files which might not have been
regenerated (packaged using pre-compiled binaries). I have a fix for
this which has been used ad-hoc in the 'bedtools' package. I'll try to move it 
into
the Python build system and see what it gives.

The full output is attached.
