</font></span></div></blockquote><br></div>Different invocations of Racket could do it; for instance, eq-hash-code assigns hash codes sequentially to objects on demand, so if objects were hashed in a different order nondeterministically, they would be put in a table in a different order. Adding or removing elements via mutation might also cause a table to be resized, and that might shuffle around the existing/remaining elements and cause them to be in a different order.<br>
