Comment (by gk):

 Testing the `gb` example on https://getgb.io/examples/sample-project/
 resulted in identical binaries. So it seems there needs to be a certain
 complexity involved to trigger the problem.

 Yawning had the hunch that part of the problem might be that go-bindata
 isn't laying out the source containing the static assets in a
 deterministic way.
