Comment:

 Could probably do something like:
 {{{
 $old = normalize_whitespace( $old_post['post_content'] );
 $new = normalize_whitespace( $new_post['post_content'] );

 if ( $old != $new || $old_post['post_title'] != $new_post['post_title'] ||
 $old_post['post_excerpt'] != $new_post['post_excerpt'] )
     do_pings...
 }}}
