> Why do we need to sort those extensions by name?

Because calling sorted() is easy. Any other arbitrary choice would make sense. But giving the ability to build sources in a specific order, add dependencies, or something else, would a new features.

Also, distutils is now deprecated in the stdlib: the steering council approved https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0632/

You should now report distutils issues to setuptools.
