The build path is embedded in /usr/share/doc/libmodglue1-dev/examples/Makefile:

  https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/amd64/diffoscope-results/modglue.html

  g++·-g·-O2·-ffile-prefix-map=/build/1st/modglue-1.17=.·-fstack-protector-strong ...
  vs.
  g++·-g·-O2·-ffile-prefix-map=/build/2/modglue-1.17/2nd=.·-fstack-protector-strong ...

The attached patch fixes this by replacing the build path with a
placeholder string in debian/rules.

With this patch applied modglue should build reproducibly on
tests.reproducible-builds.org!

Thanks for maintaining modglue!

live well,
