That's because the output from sdiff is limited in width - so here you 
go with the complete command line as reported by xl dmesg for the 
ucode=1- case:

(XEN) Command line: placeholder ucode=-1 vga=gfx-1024x768x32 
i915.modeset=1 loglvl=all guest_loglvl=all dom0_mem=4G,max:4G tmem=1 tm

And here for the ucode=scan case:

(XEN) Command line: placeholder ucode=scan vga=gfx-1024x768x32 
i915.modeset=1 loglvl=all guest_loglvl=all dom0_mem=4G,max:4G tmem=1
tmem_compress=1 tmem_dedup=1 dom0_max_vcpus=8 dom0_vcpus_pin=true 
cpufreq=xen cpuidle clocksource=hpet iommu=1 sched_credit_tsclice_
ms=5 bootscrub=0

That may be a leftover from the install prior to xen - it shouldn't do 
any harm though and I am more than happy to remove it; just in case you 
find any other option that shouldn't be there just tell me, I am happy 
to learn ...
