Well in most cases if the versions of the packages installed are same then the 
distfiles are same. But sometimes certain ebuilds are masked for different 
archs so you'll have different versions installed on your x86 and amd64 
machines, in that case the distfiles for those packages would be different. 
Also there mite be certain ebuilds that install binary files like flash those 
would be incompatible too.
