Here is my current list in things that directly affect me: sound/core/info.c contains __DATE__ to tell what date it was compiled on, I'm not sure this is really needed. usr/gen_init_cpio.c uses time(NULL) to set mtimes, scripts/Makefile.lib uses gzip with no -n flag I can supply patches to get rid of these if people think they are a good/bad idea... I also hack scripts/mkcompile_h so it never changes for me (this one is acceptable as it is very obvious that you have to do it...)
