I guess he asks if the release tarball for 11.87 corresponds to the
current ELPA release 11.87.5.  The answer is no.  The ELPA version is
more current with several fixes that the 11.87 still has (but it's still
nearer to 11.87 than to the Git HEAD).  The reason is that it's trivial
to roll a new ELPA release while regular releases require much more
effort.

So at the current point in time, I'd recommend to either use the Git
HEAD or the ELPA release.
