Control: affects -1 noweb 

I'm working on the reproducible-builds project [0]

the noweb package uses icont to create several executables in /usr/bin
and /usr/lib/noweb.

Those executables appear to have some variance depending on the build
environment.  The differences show up consistently between octets 0x130
and 0x230.  You can see them here:

I'm not sure what the variance comes from (timestamps? something else?),
but these file are generated with icont from files in src/icon/

You can see the build log here:

  https://reproducible.debian.net/rbuild/unstable/amd64/noweb_2.11b-9.rbuild.log

does icon have a deterministic mode that can be used for noweb?
