FWIW, this was precisely the question that led me to canonical
sourcestamps and triggerable builds.  The tarballs are named based on
the canonical sourcestamp.  This lets me return to rebuild an earlier
build (e.g., when a buildslave comes back online, or is lagging
behind), and have it pick up the appropriate source tarball.
