Comparing files in eclipse shows same spaces as different

Why do Eclipse comparison files show the difference between an identical line that starts and / or stops with spaces?

Why would anyone ever need this “function”, all lines become marked as different. There must be a mistake.

I know that I can use the option to ignore white spaces, but then it ignores the differences in the indentation of the block, and I do not want this.

Forgot to answer this question.

This was an additional carriage return on one side (the new line is PC, and the other is Mac / * nix), which would force the ignore spaces option for these lines to be ignored.
