This has been brought up before, but what about putting all this in a separate 
file, e.g. /etc/buildinfo?

At least I'd like this to be configurable. I'm trying to get FreeBSD code in a 
shape where it can optionally produce deterministic binaries from two different 
builds (i.e. comparable with md5) as long as the binaries are functionally 
equivalent, and "irrelevant" info like compiler version, hostname, username, 
timestamp, absolute path etc. are a nuisance if they can't be turned off with 
-fno-ident, -frandom-seed, -DSTRIP_FBSDID, ar -D and the like.

Thanks,
Erik
