This was "fixed" in upstream diffoscope git by setting a version
requirement on the test, and I think this was a new test, so not exactly
a regression in test coverage.

  https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/diffoscope/-/commit/17c061e767e612540dd0227c3fd1f9cab460a78f

So we could build diffoscope from that commit instead, or manually apply
the patch, or just wait till the next diffoscope version.
