Yes, in my experience the behavior differs.  In 1.1.4, patched files do
not get converted into text mode, in 1.1.5 they do.  If I toggle between
the DLLs and apply the same patch to the same file (or a copy of the
original), the file remains binary in 1.1.4 and converts to text in
"1.1.5".

Thanks,
Jason
