Hi,
This is not really a bug, but it makes it effectively impossible to
compare two PDFs,
at least from a script.
hm, this has to do with the fact that lua hashes are randomized (relates 
to security) .. i'll try to get around that in the next beta for widgets 
but it's always possible that things get output in a different order

btw, you probably want to run context with the --nodates --trailerid=1 
option

btw, can you move this discussion to the context mailing list as it 
doesn't relate that much to luatex itself
...
Here is a typical context diff, from 07-08-c3/widgets/xfdf-001.pdf.diff:
