It is unreasonable to comment on compiled code differences without
having seen your corresponding source code.  Maybe it's such that your
hard-coded constants got optimized out (in both cases) as not affecting
the result.  It is possible that there are some other left-over
differences from the optimizer (such as in register numbers used).
