Bug report

Bug description:

While working on reproducible builds for openSUSE, I found that our python314 (and python311) doc sub-packages produce different html on 1-core-VMs and 4-core-VMs. This suggests that there is some race going on about what the correct content should be.

https://rb.zq1.de/other/python314-doc-compare.out has a diff

The interesting bit of it is

-<p class="audit-hook" id="audit_event_cpython_run_stdin_1">
+<p class="audit-hook" id="audit_event_cpython_run_stdin_2">

How to Reproduce

To test on openSUSE or Debian, use

osc checkout openSUSE:Factory/python314 && cd $_
for N in 1 14 ; do
    osc build -M=doc --noservice --clean --vm-type=kvm -j$N --release=1.1 --keep-pkg=RPMS.$N standard
    (cd RPMS.$N && unrpm python314-doc-3*.x86_64.rpm)
done
diff -ru RPMS.{1,14}/usr/
