Comment (by mingwandroid):

 I've built that revision with gitian.

 I suspect that the problem is to do with libfaketime and the random nano-
 second values, meaning that the determinism we're looking for is not there
 yet.

 I think that the libfaketime guys are going to fix the nano-second values
 bug but that will make builds fail deterministically ( I speculated about
 a potential fix in
 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/9711#comment:59 )

 The other option is to not build GCC at all; we should not need it as
 we're using clang.
