The sizes are slightly different:
$ ls -al t/testfont.pdf t/base/testfont.pdf
-rw-r--r-- 1 cpansand cpansand 35940 Nov 22 06:01 t/base/testfont.pdf
-rw-rw-r-- 1 cpansand cpansand 35938 Nov 22 22:57 t/testfont.pdf
I see that the contents are compressed. I guess that zlib (or
whatever is involved in the compression) does not create the same
output on every platform (for example, I have a 64bit machine) or
between different zlib versions. Maybe it would be a viable
alternative to compare uncompressed PDFs, if that is possible?
Another problem is that you're using "perl" for running the script.
You should rather use $^X.
