Here is my guess:

You were merging 'next' into 'mark/snes-ex56c' - and had all failures
in 'next' show up in your testing in 'mark/snes-ex56c'

And perhaps you assumed all these failures were due to your changes -
and started fixing the output files (of examples that were not related
to your changes) that showed diffs..
