Possibly because R is using superior methodology (full ML fitting).
Note that the help page says:

      The results are likely to be different from S-PLUS's 'arima.mle',
      which computes a conditional likelihood and does not include a
      mean in the model.  Further, the convention used by 'arima.mle'
      reverses the signs of the MA coefficients.
