Unpredictable are pure Maven builds outside MEAD/Koji, MEAD enables
reproducible builds by restricting access to the internal Maven
repositories only.
It is up to SIG policy how it will bootstrap this internal repo, if we
do it all using koji maven-build from sources and do not import binary
JARs, we'll have everything rebuildable from sources.
Hard part is to resolve dependency chains and then build it in the right order.
