Proving more difficult than I'd hoped for, smallish diffs in the .ko
files and in the bzImage and System.map, but nothing obvious leaping out
at me. The corresponding files are reproducible in Debian bookworm...
Working on this lead me to notice a bug in diffoscope at least:

There was already a patch in debian to set the date using an environment
variable. Might be worth working up a patch to support SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH
and push it upstream... or nudging upstream to drop the timestamp
entirely. :)

Disabling parallel building in guix fixes it for me consistently,
although Debian's "isl" package is reproducible but... builds with
parallelism. (well, not reproducible on i386, but who's really
counting?)
What about other distros? Do you do anything to make "isl" reproducible?

Both of these were not *just* due to parallelism as I'd
hoped... inscrutible guile...
So, 2 out of the 5 remaining packages have plausible fixes (out of 47
total)... not too bad!
live well,
