Log:
  Sort `mount -p' output by name before checking for any differences.
  
  I noticed on a system at home that restarting named(8) causes the
  /var/named/dev mount to be moved to the bottom of the mount list,
  because it gets remounted. When I received the daily security email this
  morning, I was quite amazed to see that the security report listed the
  differences, while it was nothing out of the ordinary.
  
  If we just throw the `mount -p' output through sort(1), we'll only
  receive notifications about changes to mounts if something has really
  changed.
