boost does not build reproducibly

Description

​http://rb.zq1.de/compare.factory-20170510/boost-compare.out shows that the boost package on openSUSE does not build reproducibly because in libboost_container.so.1.64.0 some functions change order, which is depending on the order on the linking command line

I think this comes from boost_1_64_0/libs/container/build/Jamfile.v2 having glob *.cpp where the list of files is not sorted, so it is in (random) filesystem order.
