Dear Maintainer,

While working on the "reproducible builds" effort [1], we have noticed
that psgml could not be built reproducibly.
Specifically the order of the sorted md5sums files varies.

The attached patch fixes those issues.

Please consider this other patches from the reproducible builds team:

Thanks!
Valerie
