Unless I'm mistaken, this is addressed indirectly by this paragraph, no?
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Package_information_on_ELF_objects...
> ELF files in Fedora already vary between different package versions. The official
version of the package is embedded in the .gnu_debuglink section. And since that varies
between rebuilds, .note.gnu.build-id link which is calculated over all sections also
varies. Thus every file has two sections that vary, and we're adding a third.
So package content is already changing if any part of the source package changes, if I
understand correctly.
Huh, I guess it was. :/
