I don't think you'll find any mention of other programs in the documentation. What is important is that both signatures (fingerprints) are calculated on the uncompressed audio only. Both documentations mention this fact. They would not match if the compressed audio were used, and they would not match if the entire file were fingerprinted because the headers outside the audio data could easily differ (especially if you flac archive a bwf and restore to wav - they sound identical, but the headers are changed).

I did not find in the shntool documentation or flac documentation that the
hash or st5 always would match the flac fingerprint. But at least in a
couple tests I did they matched. And I found some more comments around the
internet indicating they were the same.
