[bitbake-devel] [PATCH] data.py: sort exported variables

[Juro Bystricky]

Various run.do_xxx files export dozens of variables.
Presently they are in random order. Among other things,
this makes it difficult to compare two files for relevant changes.
This patch ensures they are enumerated/printed in a sorted
(alphabetical) order.
