My investigation so far:

Since 2017 a patch called 1009_build_reproducibly (previously build_reproducibly) was created to enable reproducible builds.
This worked until the latest version.
The patch updates make_build_h and make_xml_documentation.
The diffoscope complains about the output of make_xml_documentation
In make_xml_documentation, a find was patched to sort dir entries (remove dependency on sort order of underlying filesystem)
Asterisk used to only pull xml documentation embedded in *.c and *.cc files
I believe in the latest version dedicated xml files are now supported.
There is now a second find command in make_xml_documentation that iterates over *.xml
I believe patching this new find command in the same way may resolve the issue.

This is as far as I can go today.
