I did this and on the first attempt I can see a few lines that have been
duplicated in both files.
ie
host.new:snmp-server community ..... rw 5
host.new:snmp-server community ..... rw 5
host.new:snmp-server community ..... rw 5

host.raw:snmp-server community ..... rw 5
host.raw:snmp-server community ..... rw 5
host.raw:snmp-server community ..... rw 5

The config only has one rw community:-
tacacs-server key 1 <snip>
snmp-server community ..... ro 5
snmp-server community ..... rw 5
snmp-server contact <snip>

I can also replicate the problem with a straight telnet session (as in
no expect) ie
telnet host
en
term len 0
write term

Sure enough I get some duplicated lines, time to raise a bug with
foundry methinks, the cli on the SI GTE series just isn't as good as on
the Bigirons, copying and pasting config also has problems....

If you can think of anything else that we can try let me know.
Thanks
