all: fix wildcard to work with make-4.x

In make-3.8x, the $(wildacrd) function would sort the entries,
while in make-4.x, it would just return the entries in any
unpredictable order [*]

Use the $(sort) function to get reproducible behaviour.

[*] Well, most probably the roder the entries appear when read
from readdir()

    10 I would like to thank these fine people for making crosstool-NG possible:
    11 
    12   Dan KEGEL, the original author of crosstool: http://www.kegel.com/
    13     Dan was very helpfull and willing to help when I build my first toolchains.
    14     I owe him one. Thank you Dan!
    15     Some crosstool-NG scripts have code snippets coming almost as-is from the
    16     original work by Dan.
    17 
    18 And in order of appearance on the crossgcc ML:
    19 
    20   Allan CLARK for his investigations on building toolchains on MacOS-X.
    21     Allan made extensive tests of the first alpha of crosstool-NG on his
    22     MacOS-X, and unveiled some bash-2.05 weirdness.

    81 20100530: Status of this file
    82 
    83 It's been about a year now that we've moved the repository to Mercurial.
    84 The repository now has proper authorship for each changeset, and this is
    85 used to build the changelog at each release. This file will probably no
    86 longer be updated, and is here to credit people prior to the Mercurial
    87 migration, or for people discussing ideas or otherwise helping without
    88 code.
    89 
    90 If you think you deserve being cited in this file, do yell at me! ;-)
