Thanks for the patch, I indeed think that calling tar with "--sort=name" 
is the solution. It requires tar >= 1.28 but fortunately that version is 
also in "jessie-backports".

For the rest of the patch (the cleanup) I'll try to review that later 
(could you split the changes in multiple patches like one to cleanup the 
white space and other(s) for the rest of the change, that would made the 
things easier I guess).
