It seems that google treats them as different sites - I know this because i do site searches on both domains and they come back with different results.

It's supposed to do that. According to RFC 2616 [w3.org]'s definition of status code 302, "The requested resource resides temporarily under a different URI. Since the redirection might be altered on occasion, the client SHOULD continue to use the Request-URI for future requests." In other words, Google is supposed to leave the first URL in the index, since it hasn't been told the redirect is permanent.
