Dear maintainer,

while working on the “reproducible builds” effort [1], we have noticed
that ldaptor could not be built reproducibly.

This is due to different content of the documentation created by Epydoc.
The attached patch ensures stable sorted order for the list of input
files fed into Epydoc, and it also moves a list out of the global scope that
captures the home directory set during the build in a string. This would
otherwise have been added to the documentation.
Once applied, ldaptor can be built reproducibly in our current experimental
framework.

Thanks for considering the patch.
Best regards,
Sascha
