Description

Before moving forward with this, can we answer the question I had in the issue --

> it's curious that this case turns out to be unstable, but things like globbing do not. **Does MSBuild apply a sort to globbing**?

I'd like to make sure we're be consistent in how we apply these fixes and we don't miss something about how things are supposed to be working. It's good that we found the source of where these items are raised from the file-system, but the lack of other uses of `OrderBy` wrapping calls to IFileSystem in this codebase makes me feel we are still missing something.
