This is going to be influenced by how many processes bproc tells Open
MPI can be launched on each node.
Check out the FAQ for the -bynode and -byslot arguments to mpirun for
more details:
I have tried these arguments several times (up through 1.0.2a4) and I
always get the same ordering.

This specific entry uses hostfiles as an example, but the issue is the
same for bproc -- the "hostfile" is simply implicitly supplied by bproc
(i.e., the node names and the available on each).
