Just following instructions:

Please report this on IRC at chat.freenode.net (channel #flashrom) or

So I decided I'd run the write again to try to sort out, and to get a log,
but the data compares the same so nothing written:

➜  thinkpad-bios git:(master) flashrom -o flashrom.log --programmer

Log attached, just in case it's somehow useful...
