We can just rely on the timestamp of the .tarball-version to support reproducible _tarballs_.
Although this makes the distributed file contents reproducible, the tarballs themselves are still not reproducible, since they contain random timestamps and (I imagine) other metadata. I vaguely recall Bruno having a general solution for that sort of problem but don't recall where it got put. (I do something more complicated in TZDB.)
