Rather than making still another results file, let's fix the .sql file
to do an explicit ORDER BY for those queries.  The regress tests are
mostly pretty lazy about ensuring a platform-independent ordering of
query results.  In many places we can get away with that, but every so
often we notice another place where we can't.  Looks like you've just
identified another.
