736k diff. Also, the gzip appeared to be corrupt in the original version. But it wasn't just a corrupt gzip, as things clearly changed, such as:

diff -ruN armel-old/etc/maemo_version armel-new/etc/maemo_version

Perhaps they should do version numbering of the SDKs as well, such as:
maemo-sdk-rootstrap_5.0.3_armel.tgz
