At the moment both production servers have different area versions, which explains the difference you're seeing.
The underlying issue for z.overpass-api.de has already been reported here: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Overpass_API/status
So, after reading the descriptions, I understand that the two servers have different geometries for the same area, but otherwise the same data inside the area, correct? That would explain what I am seeing, then.
To reproduce
Run the following query multiple times, storing and comparing results:
Expected result
The same result each time, unless the underlying OSM data have changed
Actual result
One entry keeps disappearing from the CSV file and then reappearing. Usually, when I launch a query, it is absent but appears when I repeat the query:
This point refers to km 0 of the national road 8, which is located just behind the Czech-Polish border, inside the selected area by just a tiny distance.
Further information
Tested against live overpass API within the last half hour; this has occurred since I added that particular point in JOSM a few weeks ago.
Apparently area selections are not fully repeatable, as borders vary slightly between calls. The pattern seems somewhat predictable, though: the point is absent from the first query, but repeating the query within a few minutes (at most) restores it. This has been fairly reproducible (I do not remember a single instance where the second attempt still did not restore that point).
