One thing at a time!
For a HHH that is aborting/returning, void DDD(void) { DDD(); return; }
is not equivalent to DDD(void) { HHH(DDD); return; }
Now, under no simulating H (aborting or not) does the /simulation/ of
the diagonal case reach the return out of H: that much is true.
The simulated function does reach the return; the simulation just has to
be continued to perform those steps.
Under a non-aborting H (H(D) equivalent to UTM(D)), D is
non-terminating. If the abandoned simulation of D is continued, it
will not end no matter how many additional steps are simulated.
In that sense, then, that situation is equivalent to other non-terminating
situations like D() { D(); } (same as Infinite_Recursion).
That's almost certainly what Keith was talking about.
Any non-terminating function is the same as any other; it runs forever
and computes nothing. Except that some non-terminating machines consume
infinite resources (e.g. Turing machine always needing more tape)
wheras some work with fixed resources (iterating over same short piece
of tape).
A terminating function is never equivalent to a non-terminating one.
