syslinux/ldlinux.c32 differs from installation source to destination on Jessie

Spotted by the automated test suite:

call returned: [1, "Files /lib/live/mount/medium/isolinux/ldlinux.c32 and /mnt/new/syslinux/ldlinux.c32 differ\n", ""]

The original one has e.g. the “GCC: (Debian 4.9.2-10)” string, while the one installed on the target device has “GCC: (Debian 4.9.2-9)” instead.

That file is among the four ones that have a more recent mtime (that matches the installation time) on the destination than on the source: syslinux.cfg, stdmenu.cfg, ldlinux.sys and ldlinux.c32 => perhaps it’s modified when we run syslinux, just like ldlinux.sys is? If so, then it should be added to ignores in usb.rb.
