I found what causes the problem:

The failing tests use the following for finding the path to test files:
QDir::addSearchPath(prefix, 
QFileInfo(QString::fromUtf8(__FILE__)).dir().absoluteFilePath(prefix));

In unstable reproducible builds the build path is varied,
and gcc patched to accept setting __FILE__ to a fixed
(reproducible) location.

In other words, when Debian will start changing __FILE__ also on the 
buildds this will become a FTBFS also there.
