I looked into the lens models in some detail a while back, and they
are not the same.
Adobe is using r^2, r^4 and r^6 distortion coefficients, plus
tangential distortion. This is likely identical to Bouguet's camera
calibration, at http://www.vision.caltech.edu/bouguetj/calib_doc/
Hugin uses r, r^2 and r^3 distortion, and no tangential distortion.
Hugin also uses a different normalization of radius, so the 'r' terms
are not the same, although you can convert.
It is possible to get equivalent answers from Hugin and Bouguet if you
restrict to the r^2 term only, but that's not necessarily powerful
enough to handle the distortion in a typical point-and-shoot, or wide-
angle lens.

Adobe doesn't directly reference Bouguet, though, so it may be one of
the variants....
Sorry, not a simple answer, and not really complete. I never wrote up
properly what I found.
