Okay cool I pushed a fix in emacs29, with that installed we don't try to
sort anymore conses based on their 'sxhash-equal' value because this is
not stable over different Emacs sessions.  With the change installed the
build looks finally reproducible here.

Bernhard please let us know if this solves the problem on your side as
