Not to nitpick, but are there examples when the routing table is not already sorted? If you've already got the files on a *nix box, I might try:

diff -y --supp tableA tableB | grep \|
C 10.0.2.0/24 is directly connected, Vlan2 | C 10.0.2.0/24 is directly connected, Vlan20
C 10.0.3.0/24 is directly connected, Vlan3 | C 10.0.3.0/24 is directly connected, Vlan30

This should show only changes for the same networks and help you track down dups.
