Apparently that’s just a timestamp being recorded in several places.
I’d grep the strings above to see where that comes from.

Thanks for the report!

The attached patch should solve it.  Since there are quite a few
dependent packages, I'd like to push this to a new 'staging' branch that
will be started shortly after the core-updates merge.  WDYT?

I also don't know if this fixes the difference also, where an additional ;
is present...
Could you check this, or should I run a test with the patch?
It seems like a 2 byte difference.

It passes `guix build --rounds=2`, so I'm not sure what was up with that ";".

Most probably it is some kind of checksum which includes the timestamp.
If it passes "guix build --rounds=2" it should be fine.
Thanks for the clarification.

I pushed this to a new 'staging' branch based off core-updates.
