My digging spot haven't moved at all, maybe you are just becoming crazy :-)
As for monsters I haven't noticed anything special, but I'm not hunting a lot atm
Newer compiler might produce different machine code, but the behaviour of the code is still the same, whether it's compiled with a 1990-era compiler or a 2017-one, thankfully. There is no such thing as tooling changing the monster spawn.
The two possibles explanations are someone in fact moving the spots (but this can only be done with a server reboot), or much more likely, confirmation bias
