I didn’t knew about setq-default, thanks!. But, in this case, running emacs -q and evaluating (setq-default ediff-diff-options "-w") instead of (setq...) doesn’t seem to work neither.

The value set with setq-default applies immediately to all buffers that do not have a local buffer-only value for this variable.

Try using:

(setq-default ediff-diff-options “-w”)
