Ugh, this is due to the refactoring of this patch between v1 and v2. I
specifically recall testing for this in v1 because I added the ordered
bool purely to clean up the ASSERT(), then I apparently lost of track of
it for v2.

Anyways.. Christoph, Darrick, preferences to clean this up..? I have no
preference between the v1 or v2 factoring. Or if it's easier, we could
always just drop something like the hunk below on top. Thoughts?
