Unfortunately that would not be reliable in general, since there
might be a symbolic link to /dev/fd, or something else like that.
This is clearly a bug in MacOS X. POSIX says that if two file
descriptions have the same st_dev and st_ino, then they must be the
same file. Can you please file a bug report with the MacOS X folks?
In the meantime, how about if diff looks at the st_mtime too
(including the nanoseconds component)?
