As seen at
https://reproducible.debian.net/rb-pkg/experimental/amd64/perl.html
https://reproducible.debian.net/dbd/experimental/amd64/perl_5.22.0-4.debbindiff.html
the compiled file
usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.22.0/auto/Devel/PPPort/PPPort.so
varies with file system ordering, because PPPort_xs.PL uses readdir()
to generate the list of files to process.
This breaks build reproducibility, as readdir() ordering can vary
between file systems. It's easy to test with the disorderfs package,
recently added to the reproducible.debian.net setup.
The attached patch fixes the issue. The reproducible.debian.net logs
have a size cutoff so we can't know if this was the only issue of its
kind. I was expecting more of them, but my test didn't turn up any.

Subject: [PATCH] Sort the list of XS code files when generating RealPPPort.xs
all_files_in_dir() uses readdir() ordering to make the list of
input files. This can vary between build systems, breaking build
reproducibility.
