I totally agree. :-)
While looking at this issue I saw that javahelper passes -notimestamp to javadoc
by default now. I don't think there are that many packages calling javadoc directly.
But of course the best would be if javadoc changes its default behavior.

jodconverter uses neither dh, nor cdbs, so strip-nondeterminism is not called.
