The help file says:

 weights: A character scalar that gives the name of the edge attribute
          to use in the adjacency matrix. If it is ‘NULL’, then the
          ‘weight’ edge attribute of the graph is used, if there is
          one. Otherwise, or if it is ‘NA’, then the calculation uses
          the standard adjacency matrix.

So indeed, the results will be the same.

This is a bug, thanks for the report, I have already fixed it in the
development tree.
