It looks like it's dh_strip_nondeterminism that's changing the timestamp on the .el.gz file, and hence making emacs think that the source file is newer than the byte-compiled file. I suspect it may make sense to have some way to get strip-nondeterminism to preserve them, so I'm assigning a clone of this bug there.
