More precisely the two latest changelog entries have the same date:

| llvm-toolchain-3.9 (1:3.9.1-11) unstable; urgency=medium
| 
|   [ Sylvestre Ledru ]
|   * Remove the --no-discard-stderr option from help2man calls
|   * Also add a missing include in ftfbs-gcc.diff to fix a ftbfs
|     with gcc 7
|   * clang was producing unusable binaries on armv5tel (Closes #873304)
|     Thanks to Adrian Bunk for the patch
|   * Disable -gsplit-dwarf when using gcc 7 for causing a linking issue
|     See https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34140 (Closes: #853524)
| 
|   [ Gianfranco Costamagna, John Paul Adrian Glaubitz ]
|   * Add powerpcspe to latomic archs 
| 
|   [ Katsuhiko Nishimra ]
|   * Ensure /usr/bin/g++-$(GCC_VERSION) exists (Closes: #871591)
| 
|  -- Sylvestre Ledru <sylvestre@debian.org>  Sun, 18 Jun 2017 19:12:15 +0200
| 
| llvm-toolchain-3.9 (1:3.9.1-10) unstable; urgency=medium
| 
|   * Now that strech has been released, upload in unstable!
|     This is necessary for rust in unstable
|   * Try to fix some PATH_MAX on hurd
|   * Enable the verbose mode when trying to build libfuzzer
|     to detect potential issues in the path search
| 
|  -- Sylvestre Ledru <sylvestre@debian.org>  Sun, 18 Jun 2017 19:12:15 +0200

That's the reason why the files ended-up with the same date but
different content.
