these issues seem to have been resolved, 
https://jenkins.debian.net/job/reproducible_netbsd/1029/console
contains no such timeouts.

https://jenkins.debian.net/job/reproducible_netbsd/1029/console
contains this, which IMO should not happen and is an issue in
diffoscope:

三人成虎- Three men make a tiger.
In other words, if one guy says "there's a tiger over there" you might not 
believe 
them, if three guys in a row all say this- you think there's a tiger there. A 
lie, 
repeated often enough, will be accepted as truth.
