The processing color space LR uses is ProPhoto primaries and a linear gamma.
The numbers provided (in percentages) is Melissa RGB (aka Bastard RGB) which
is ProPhoto RGB using a sRGB 2.2 TRC. However, the values should be R=G=B
using those numbers.

It should. Are you seeing something different?

I was under the impression the underling color space used for processing in
Aperture was Adobe RGB but for whatever reason, Apple doesn't want to tell
us what exactly is happening under the hood. What makes you say its not
Adobe RGB (perhaps using a linear TRC)?
