Unfortunately, the bytecode compiler is not completely deterministic. Generating the same ".zo" file from the same source is likely to produce different bytes each time. The root causes are various counters and hash orders, and I hope to fix that eventually. For now, since the generated bytecode is different, there can be inconsistencies instead of just duplicated work.
