The dff flag passed to abc appears to cause non-determinism in the generated netlist.

I think this needs an associated github issue tracking what would need to change for -dff to be readded?

If possible it would be great to have a test which verifies everything now stays deterministic. Don't know how hard that would be?

This seems more like an ABC bug than anything else. For repro, I think you can just synthesize the same RTL a bunch of times, and you can check if all of the output netlists are identical.

The dff flag passed to abc appears to cause non-determinism in the generated netlist.
