With the following small file, e.g. small.el:
----
;;; small.el --- a sample file.

(defcustom foo 4)
----

viewing it in a gnome terminal:

% emacs -q -nw small.el

versus an Xwindow:

% emacs -q small.el

shows slightly different font locking, e.g. the text "small.el --- a
sample file." is not in red in the terminal, but the semi-colons are.

Is the difference between windowing systems intentional?

Yes -- on 8-color ttys only the comment delimiters are colored, not the
comments themselves."
