Comment (by gk):

 Replying to [comment:9 zyan]:
 > hmm, note that the latest development release already includes
 VACUUMing, but that shouldn't be causing problems.

 Yes, we are using 3.5.1. I made some tests and the results are attached.
 "+ patch" means 3.5.1 + VACUUMing. The first of both hashes in a section
 is from the 32bit build the latter from the 64bit one. VACUUMing does not
 do anything to solve the problem. (I missed that when testing as I only
 compared the 32bit output of build1 against the 32bit output of build2
 done locally which is identical) To make matters even more interesting I
 included a hash of a rules.sqlite built in a 32bit Gitian environment on a
 different machine. It is different compared to the hashes of my local
 build machine.
