libraries in link-line lexicographically sorted

Since version 1.134 of boost/tools/build/v1/boost-base.jam (created on 
the 12th of August) the libraries (specified by means of <find-library> 
in the requirements section of the exe) are sorted lexicographically. On 
almost all platforms however (windows is an exception I believe) all 
libraries need to be in a specific order. Until version 1.133 of 
boost-base.jam the order in the Jamfile was respected in the link-line.

I tried to understand which modif actually performs this sort but my 
understanding of bjam language is not sufficient yet ;-(
