Assuming this is done to rule out bugs 
in FFmpeg:
I find it unlikely that ffv1 is not lossless 
and that you will find out like this (as 
opposed to feed random data to the codec).
I find it much more likely that a bug in 
the dpx decoder exists: Since you use the 
same decoder twice in above test you
would not find such a bug.
A bug in both gm and FFmpeg that leads to 
identical output seems less likely to me.

Of course I do believe that framemd5 is 
useful to compare frames.
