This bug was found while working on reproducible builds for openSUSE.
Background:
As part of my work on reproducible builds for openSUSE, I check that software still gives identical build results in the future.
The usual offset is +16 years, because that is how long I expect some software will be used in some places.
This showed up failing tests in our package build.
See https://reproducible-builds.org/ for why this matters.
