This patch removes sources of build non-determinism in the upstream sources.
In particular, many of the compiled sources are generated with Python code,
which in turn uses dictionaries to index the output C functions. However,
iterators over Python dictionaries have no guaranteed order, thus resulting in
the C functions being output in a random order between builds.
The patch below fixes this by forcing an order during output in several key
places. Note, however, that future updates may uncover new such places that
just happen to be non-problematic at the time of this patch. If you are
reading this due to finding such issues, feel free to contact me at
elaexuotee@wilsonb.com for help.
