diffoscope is failing due to:

INTERNALERROR> Traceback (most recent call last):

Personally, I can hardly imagine how this would be a diffoscope issue,
so I ask the pytest maintainer to look into it.

Judging by the position of that output, it seem to come from the
conftest.py, pytest_report_header() function, alas I haven't tried
removing it to confirm.
