I've briefly looked at the diffoscope output and the code.

One of the problems seems to be that auto_find_examples() from
brian2/sphinxext/examplefinder.py loops over the lists "tutorials" and
"examples", the order of which depends on the file system.

I haven't tested it, but I think this patch would help:

--- a/brian2/sphinxext/examplefinder.py
+++ b/brian2/sphinxext/examplefinder.py
@@ -54,9 +54,9 @@
     '''
     name = obj.__name__
     examples_map = get_examples_map()
-    examples = the_examples_map[name]
+    examples = sorted(the_examples_map[name])
     tutorials_map = get_tutorials_map()
-    tutorials = the_tutorials_map[name]
+    tutorials = sorted(the_tutorials_map[name])
     if len(examples+tutorials)==0:
         return ''
     txt = 'Tutorials and examples using this'
