Subject: want same order in /sys/class/net/eth as /sys/bus/pci/devices

I'd like to see the same order of devices in /sys/class/net/eth*
as in /sys/bus/pci/devices.  This would make administration easier.
On Fedora 8 tests, the order I see is reversed:
  http://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=291431

Perhaps the reversal is a result of the alias order listed in
/etc/modprobe.conf.  But the alias order was obtained from some
source.  Was the first reversal due to a user-space program
(such as the anaconda installer), or due to something within
the kernel?
