Bug#886902: clanlib: please make the build reproducible

[Chris Lamb]

Source: clanlib
Version: 1.0~svn3827-7
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0], we noticed
that clanlib could not be built reproducibly.

This is because it loops over the filesystem in a nondeterminstic
order when generating the docs.

Patch attached.
