soring of intput files

[Olaf Hering]

I wonder if make will sort files during expansion, or if it uses the
readdir result as is without sorting the files. In other words, will the
following example result in the very same content not matter how the
files are layed out on disk?


DOC_HTML := $(patsubst %.markdown,html/%.html,$(MARKDOWNSRC-y)) \
            $(patsubst man/%.pod.1,html/man/%.1.html,$(MAN1SRC-y)) \
            $(patsubst man/%.pod.5,html/man/%.5.html,$(MAN5SRC-y)) \
            $(patsubst %.txt,html/%.txt,$(TXTSRC-y)) \
            $(patsubst %,html/hypercall/%/index.html,$(DOC_ARCHES))
