Thanks. I saw that, and was able to do something similar. The gzipped kernel image now seems to be identical between builds. The .deb files still vary unless some Debian toolchain issues can be resolved[0]. For example, files archived in readdir order which can vary on ZFS, and timestamps in the .deb's 'ar' archive.

That may be explained by this[1] although I can't seem to strip them out. It happens both with gcc-4.8 and clang-3.3.
