 This is indeed what was missing. Adding `--no-insert-timestamp` flags made
 the build reproductible.

 The current version patch is in branch `bug_16472_v4`:
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/boklm/tor-browser-
 build.git/commit/?h=bug_16472_v4&id=13859a052ed60083c43dc913141b66e45ac37afb

 I think the only missing part now is a new selfrando version tagged which
 includes commit d070755.
