I'd just like to comment with three rather general comments:

a.) thanks for bringing this up here, Vagrant.
b.) solving this seems to be a requirement for getting the build-essential
    package set reproducible in Debian.(!)
c.) solving this could include solving the distributing Debian .buildinfo files
    problem(s) - some of which are collected here: https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds#Big_outstanding_issues

IOW, this could become a *major* step towards reproducible Debian!
