I think they should give the same result. If not, then the mostly likely explanation is that you've not used the files the way you think you have. You need to be able to issue
 
grompp -f md -c pr -o md 
g_rms -s md.tpr -f whatever 
g_rms -s pr.gro -f whatever
 
and get different results for there to be some kind of problem. In any case, you need to provide copies of your command lines and the different result in order for us to see whether you or GROMACS has done something wrong/unexpected/whatever. Otherwise it's hearsay and we'll shrug and do something else with our time :-)
