I don't really see the value-added here. If we had made this decision
before releasing 7.1, I'd not have objected; but at this point we're
talking about breaking oid2name and any similar scripts that people
may have developed, for what's really a *very* marginal gain. Who cares
whether a directory listing reflects numerical order?
