Looking at http://www.wanderingitaly.com/blog/textpattern/textpattern.js reveals your textpattern.js hasn’t been replaced during upgrading.
Why isn’t that detected by the checksum test, then? I’ve added a few lines to my textpattern.js (though in 4.5.7) and it was always displayed as edited on the diagnostics panel.

Funny, it had the right timestamp. I re-uploaded it and it doesn’t make a difference.

Hmmm, when I ftp the file it doesn’t change the existing file. Just updates the time stamp.

Re: Expand/collapse on write page
Well, it still says
$HeadURL: https://textpattern.googlecode.com/svn/releases/4.5.7/source/textpattern/textpattern.js
in line 2. So your FTP app seems to ignore it. I’ve always found these apps not too reliable. Try a different one.

Re: Expand/collapse on write page
Or try opening the file by double clicking in your ftp application and paste in the correct contents. Might be quicker done than getting another FTP app.

Re: Expand/collapse on write page
Sorry for my ignorance; I’m afraid of breaking something. Can’t I just (try to) delete the file on the server and upload the new one?

Re: Expand/collapse on write page
Ok. I found the problem and I’m embarrassed to say that I was using cloudflare and it was caching this file and holding on to it forever. Once I flushed the cache everything is fine.
Thanks all.

Re: Expand/collapse on write page
You’re welcome, and no need to be embarrassed.
Just for learning, no experience with cloud services: which cache exactly was the culprit, how did you do that?

Re: Expand/collapse on write page
Cloudflare caches the whole site. I thought for only 4 hours, but this has been going on for days.
I put cloudflare in “development mode” which doesn’t use caching and the site worked as advertised. So I just went ahead and cleared the whole cache. Cloudflare saves me quite a bit of bandwidth, but I’m not sure it makes the site much faster. It might block legitimate traffic, so I’m not really that thrilled about it, especially when something like this happens.
