[bug #65438] Sort print-targets output.

[Paul D. Smith]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #65438 (group make):

I think the term "sort" isn't really correct here: from the user's point of
view they simply see the output in a different, and deterministic, but still
more or less random, order than they did before.  I doubt most users will be
able to map the output they see onto the input make reads except in simple
situations.  When you start having lots of include files etc. it becomes hard
to follow.

Question: why not just _actually_ sort the output so the results are ordered
by pathname of the target instead of by order discovered?
