Those are not "very" different. I would suspect they are within computer rounding error. Only numbers of log2 can be represented exactly, could that be it? Did you compiled the two versions differently, or could something have changed between 2.11.1 to 2.12.2 - both of which are old versions of R? If you provide a reproducible example I will gladly run it to compare your results with 2.13.1. Maybe somebody else will have a more helpful response. FWIW,
