Can someone comment on this: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.build/25948 ?

The re-ordering of sources is happening because of this line (629) in convert-to-consumable-types in generators.jam:

            return [ sequence.unique $(result) ] ;

which reorders the list.  Would it be more appropriate to do this instead?

            return [ sequence.unique $(result) : stable ] ;

Thanks,

Chris
