See https://reproducible-builds.org/ for why this is good

sort is only needed for mxflat that includes subdirs

This assumes GNU tar is used and timestamp of files in the theme archives
are not important, so they are set to 1970-01-01.
Otherwise a more elaborate patch can be done.

rep prefers .jlc files over .jl if the .jlc timestamp is newer, wrong timestamps on .jl file would then result in rep using a possibly older .jlc file instead of a possibly newer .jl file.

But: theme's .jl files are never compiled (not supported), thus here timestamps don't matter.

No love for BSD tar?
