Comment (by boklm):

 To check the status of reproducibility, I did a build using commit
 `bfc288d54a28f00e088ba9ce08bd718156d8ff2f` on two machines, and legind did
 one too.

 The OSX bundles matched in all 3 builds. The Windows bundles didn't match
 because of a small diff in tor.exe (similar to the one above). The linux32
 bundles matched in all 3 builds, but the linux64 ones only matched in 2 of
 the builds, with a diff in libxul.so. I did not yet investigate the reason
 for the diff in one of the linux64 builds.
