Comment (by holin):
I tested 8.5.1 with my changes and subsequent armhf builds appear to have
identical SHA-256 sums, all languages.
My arm tree assumes an arm64 builder host right now, but still supports
building on armhf. It would be slightly cleaner (esp. projects
/debootstrap-image) if armhf stuff was cleared out, and, I'll probably do
that because building rust is way too unpredictable on 32-bit builder
host. 64-bit built armhf binary seems to behave fine, and the above
reproducibility was tested with 64-bit builder.
Compared to my first 8.0 tree, I added gnu triplets to all targets, and I
think having them would also be beneficial for cross building. The
triplets could replace the arch variable as far as I can see.
Cross building would seem to be much cleaner done if the build host had
debian stretch base because of better apt multiarch support, but I haven't
really done anything substantial towards cross building yet. Arm64 would
likely require debian stretch level glibc regardless of how it's built.
