Boy ... I don't have any confidence in that answer. psql does not re-sort
data, nor does it have any way to affect what the server does. It seems
to me that if this actually is a version inconsistency problem, that's
a bug in itself.

I am starting to wonder though if you had psql's FETCH_COUNT option
active in one configuration and not the other, and if so whether that
could explain anything.
