I could not find an authoritative source for this, but from what I could
hint from [0] (see the part about "Qt tests and __FILE__"), they do have
a patched gcc and a special dpkg which use the BUILD_PATH_PREFIX_MAP
environment variable as specified iby reproducible-builds.org [1].
Also, upstream gcc has an "in-progress" upstream solution being worked
on, based on BUILD_PATH_PREFIX_MAP, but they did not like it [2]...
