The icedtea packages are not reproducible.

* The JDK provides jar files that did not undergo repacking (see
ant-build-system), so they contain timestamps.

* The doc output contains files generated by javadoc, which contain
more than one timestamp. Near the top is a comment:

<!-- Generated by javadoc (version …) on Tue Mar 06 12:59:50 GMT 2018 -->

A little further down (still in the head of the document):

<meta name="date" content="2018-03-06">

* Some of the HTML files in the doc output (such as
share/doc/icedtea/api/org/omg/PortableInterceptor/ORBInitInfoPackage/DuplicateNameHelper.html)
also contain text like this:

Toggle snippet (6 lines)
<div class="block">org/omg/PortableInterceptor/ORBInitInfoPackage/DuplicateNameHelper.java .
Generated by the IDL-to-Java compiler (portable), version "3.2"
from ../../../../src/share/classes/org/omg/PortableInterceptor/Interceptors.idl
Tuesday, March 6, 2018 1:41:31 PM GMT</div>

* Some HTML files in the doc output have *lots* of differences. An
example is
share/doc/icedtea/api/javax/print/attribute/standard/PrinterMakeAndModel.html,
which seems to be *empty* in the “-check” output. This is rather
strange.

This is fixed in commit f2785bd65. The “out” output of icedtea-8 now
is built reproducibly.
