Comparing the source archives with version control I see the generated
src/native/unix/unix/configure and src/native/unix/unix/support. I tried
regenerating `configure`, but due to autconf version differences
(2.71 vs 2.73) there were plenty of changes. Same for config.sub and
config.guess. Otherwise no surprises, and signatures match

This did not quite produce the same binary for me, timestamps were off
by 1 hour presumably because my locale is not en_GB (and I don't have
it installed so it wasn't easy to switch). This makes it hard to
validate there's no other changes, but it looks OK.

The diff is indeed quite small

Summarizing: generally looks good, a number of differences that make it
harder to review but seem OK on inspection. I have not actually tested
running the code.

This is my +1.
