All-Stars doesn't have just the same glitches.

Now, I'm not a NES programmer but somehow I doubt they could port NES code with ease to SNES. If not, then All-Stars is a full-blown remake, even with the identical gameplay and levels. 

The gameplay was SLIGHTLY different. It was easier to use the turtle at the end of 3-1 to get your 100+ free men. And when you hit a brick block, Mario would "float" a little upwards.  It was definitely different than the NES version. Further proof that things were more built from the ground up than just copied over.

It felt the same to me! And ask the glitches I used (like his to get to the top of the screen on level 2-1, for example) still worked. I guess they did it on purpose for guys like me--which is actually pretty cool.
