Are you sure that you have the same versions? Did you happen to
install one of them in a path with a space in it? Maybe you tried
both from different environments?

The tag is a strict superset of the source distribution. Here's what
I just did:
$ mkdir 1
$ cd 1
$ tar xzf ...some-dir.../plt-src-mac.tgz
$ cd ..
$ mkdir 2
$ cd 2
$ mkdir racket
$ cd racket
$ git archive --remote=git://git.racket-lang.org/plt.git v5.1.1 \
| tar x
$ cd ../..
$ diff -rq 1 2
In the first tar command I'm using a backup of the tgz files that were
later turned to the installers -- you'll need to just copy the tree
from the dmg file there. In any case, here's the output of the diff:
