I usually develop using nginx/mongrel and deploy on the same
platform.
In the past I'd develop on webrick and deploy on lighttpd
and would
(rarely) run into situations where code worked on webrick
but not on
lightty.

Now I'm in a situation where the client has requested
Apache/Mongrel
while I'm developing on Nginx/Mongrel.  Since the Rails side
is handled
by mongrel, is there any chance that the front-end webserver
difference
will cause the code to act differently?  If so I'll probably
just set up
another dev environment to mimic the deploy platform.

cheers,
Vince

Depends on how paranoid you are Even if you set up your own, there's no telling how theirs will be set up. I've seen people';s sessions get goofed cos the sysadmin had cookie caching turned on. 
 
It's been my experience that the app runs the same with apache+mod_proxy_balancer as with nginx.  That said, most companies I know of try to have a staging server that mirrors their prod server. This helps eliminate any questions as to whether it's the machine / os / server / size of the hamster in the CPU.
 
Could also compromise... use apache';s regular proxy to bounce requests over to nginx
