The absolute units of force doesn't depend upon the value of acceleration due to gravity, so they remain the same throughout the universe. But the gravitational unit of force depend upon the value of 'g' which is different at different places.
The fundamental difference in convention is that in SI, the constant of proportionality is chosen to be 1, so you have: F = ma
In a gravitational system, acceleration is measured in units of g, so you have: F = m (a/g) This allows the same unit to be used for force and for mass.
