I have uploaded a new upstream release of libjifty-dbi-perl, which 
compensates for the lack of ordering in the returned data.

I wonder how severe this bug is now, and if it is a bug at all, or 
just like the SQL databases, in absence of explicit ordering, data may 
be returned in arbitrary order.

Lowering severity for now.
