rootfs-postcommands.bbclass says:

# Perform any additional adjustments needed to make rootf binary reproducible
rootfs_reproducible () {
        if [ "${REPRODUCIBLE_TIMESTAMP_ROOTFS}" != "" ]; then
                # Convert UTC into %4Y%2m%2d%2H%2M%2S
                sformatted=`date -u -d @${REPRODUCIBLE_TIMESTAMP_ROOTFS} 
+%4Y%2m%2d%2H%2M%2S`
                echo $sformatted > ${IMAGE_ROOTFS}/etc/version
                bbnote "rootfs_reproducible: set /etc/version to $sformatted"

                if [ -d ${IMAGE_ROOTFS}${sysconfdir}/gconf ]; then
                        find ${IMAGE_ROOTFS}${sysconfdir}/gconf -name 
'%gconf.xml' -print0 | xargs -0r \
                        sed -i -e 
's@\bmtime="[0-9][0-9]*"@mtime="'${REPRODUCIBLE_TIMESTAMP_ROOTFS}'"@g'
                fi
        fi
}

so I'd try setting REPRODUCIBLE_TIMESTAMP_ROOTFS to "". I suspect the change
above started setting that to some value incidentally.

Cheers,

Richard
