For me, it returned 1 before and after upgrading to debhelper/12.5.1 (from 12.4). Digging in the tests, it looks like strip-nondeterminism is *not* testing the installed binaries[1]. So for now I am punting it to strip-nondeterminism (even if only on a technicality). If you can dig out the real problem, please reassign back/file a bug as appropriate.
