Binary output is not deterministic

The goal of DeterministicBuilds (#4012 (closed)) was to get ABI-compatible binaries given the same sources, flags and the environment. There's a stronger goal of getting bit-for-bit identical binaries and this ticket will track that.

Known causes of binary nondeterminism:

  • Unique comparison
  • Uniques converted to strings for symbol names
  • everything else from #4012 (closed)
