What cases exactly does that fix ... and are you sure it doesn't break
anything?

Personally I've been wondering for some time why we use lorder/tsort
at all.  Are there any platforms we support where this is still needed?
(Given the existence of circular references within libpq.a, one would
think that tsort wouldn't help such a platform anyway.)
