Did you ever find out how this works? I have a variable that's set in both
group_vars/aws/secrets.yml and group_vars/aws_dogfood/secrets.yml, and I
can't figure out why on some servers it uses the variable from "aws" and
others use the variable from "aws_dogfood".

The short answer is 'no', sorry.
But you've brought this back to my mind and hopefully I'll have a chance
to find out. If you do, I'd love to hear it.
I suspect the behaviour is actually 'undefined' because in python, dicts
are not ordered, but I'm not sure. Perhaps we could convince Ansible
that this matters and to replace the relevant dict with an
collections.OrderedDict and insert key/value pairs in a specific
(lexicographic?) order.
In Ansible 2.0+, it's probably somewhere in the VariableManager class
(lib/ansible/vars/__init__.py)
