Most likely not. According to the guys who wrote the libraries they are trying to keep them as close to before as possible. In fact if you use the RS-232 port on the RoboRio with the R-PI and a UART to RS-232 converter it may be nearly identical.

A note on the differences between TTL UART and RS-232. RS-232 will likely be more reliable than UART due to the differences in how they signal and I would suggest using UART to 232 conversion.
