[Reproducible-builds] Bug#828762: slang2: please make the build reproducible

Hi!

While working on the "reproducible builds" effort [1], we have noticed
that slang2 could not be built reproducibly.
While creating a static library, the list of object files is sorted
locale-dependently, which causes a different order depending on the
locale.

The attached patch fixes this by using the C locale while listing files.

Regards,
 Reiner
