It's quite curious that we need to explicitly exclude t2 here to get a
deterministic result. But both of the results are correct, and in fact
I've seen it once before that we got different results on different
platforms.

Sooo... weird, but I'd say we can live with this weirdness. Doubly so
because it's not the fault of this patch series.
