/mask in the drawinglayer primitive dump is produced here:

drawinglayer/source/tools/primitive2dxmldump.cxx:948

i.e. once Primitive2dXmlDump::decomposeAndWrite() hits a
PRIMITIVE2D_ID_MASKPRIMITIVE2D then it works with a MaskPrimitive2D to
produce content. So a possible starting point would be to parallel-debug
a good and a bad build and see what MaskPrimitive2D instances are
created and what are the additional/missing ones in the different cases.

Regards,

Miklos
