The outputs are not such that a diff is all that useful,
a extensively different output ordering appears to be 
involved.

For reference:

# ls -lTd ~/ofwdump_*.txt
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  166008 Apr  7 16:21:33 2019 /root/ofwdump_11,2_usefdt1.txt
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   93713 Apr  7 13:11:21 2019 /root/ofwdump_3,6_bad.txt
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  162390 Apr  7 15:40:23 2019 /root/ofwdump_3,6_good.txt
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  818400 Apr  7 15:15:03 2019 /root/ofwdump_7,2_good.txt

( *3,6_bad.txt was under usefdt=1 and based on far more modern head code than the
matching *3,6_good.txt file was. *7,2_good.txt is from the old version of head as
well. )

ofwdump_3,6_bad.txt seems to be missing a lot, based on the size difference vs.
ofwdump_3,6_good.txt .
