Comment (by zyan):

 I would expect builds (after deleting rulesets.sqlite) with VACUUM to be
 the same across different 32 or 64 bit machines running Linux. Here's the
 shasum I get when running ./makexpi.sh on 3.5.1 after cherry-picking
 commit 37082ccf6274e46d83ad247e0d2c9236f7f338ef (to VACUUM the db) on a
 64-bit debian machine:

 {{{
 8585325d850ed9f10de6a52f70dd2269df7ebd43  pkg/https-
 everywhere-3.5.1~pre.xpi
 }}}

 I did it a few times and got the same result, deleting ./pkg and
 ./src/defaults/rulesets.sqlite in between.
