So, 1.7.1 is the latest version of ansible, you are running an older
version which we realistically can't answer questions about here.

That being said, in each case, you have said to insert at the start of the
file.

That all being said, there's never been a bug where that array has been
processed out of order - so can you confirm it's exactly in that order in
both your playbook and the output, and was not typed in manually, and that
there is no other occurance of those lines in the file that might have been
copied/pasted instead?

with_items has always run in order and the BOF part should be completely
deterministic.
