This has been completed and we reproduced ~1700 extra packages when building with a GCC-6 with this patch, as well as a patched dpkg that sets the environment variable appropriately. This is about 6.5% of ~26100 Debian source packages, and about 1/2 of the ones whose irreproducibility is due to build-path issues. Most of the rest are not related to GCC, such as things built by R, OCaml, Erlang, LLVM, PDF IDs, etc, etc. https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/unstable/index_suite_amd64_stats.html The dip afterwards is due to reverting back to an unpatched GCC-6, but I'll be rebasing the patch continually over the next few weeks so the graph should stay up.
