Further testing shows that you can get different output on subsequent runs on the same input (ignoring the time stamps).
So far, all of the differences appear to be caused by data being output in a different order rather than the data itself being different. So, I believe that the resulting maps are still good. You should understand that the ordering of some of the map's data structures is not important as long as all the cross-references match up.
Has anyone written a "lint" program for *.img files that would validate all the cross-references? Or a program to pretty-print the data structures in sorted format? The sorted pretty-print should be identical across runs. Marko
