This is expected. Shake cannot be applied to atoms that are being perturbed
(since the equilibrium bond lengths in the perturbed and unpertubed states
might be different). Hence, in the "standard" run Shake is being applied,
but not in the run using the perturbation prmtop file. So the results should
indeed differ.
