Comment (by eschnett):

 Since the output changes only when the executable changes, it may be that
 the compiler is generating different code. Certain optimisations may
 depend on the order in which certain internal compiler data structures are
 laid out, which may depend e.g. on the time and date.

 Can you save two executables? I would like to compare the disassembled
 output of the routine generating these data, and see whether they differ.
