Today while checking diff of pango and libxml I noticed that bumping PR/INC_PR to target value before building it the old way helps a lot. Even the binaries were a bit different when they were built from different workdir because of PR (probably because of unstripped data in workdir/image). So now I first bump PR/INC_PR to target combination, then build without BBCLASSEXTEND without rm_work inherit or -c build, backup workdir, make BBCLASSEXTEND change, -c clean, -c build, and diff -rq workdir with backuped version. If it's different only in temp/run* temp/log* then it's great :). But usually static libs are still a bit different but probably in harmless way.
