We had this exact question in the spanish list two weeks ago. I also suggest that we need to explain this a bit more explicitely. Actually the spanish question involved a PARTITION BY / ORDER BY clause, and the difference showed up not because of the existance of ORDER BY alone, but by whether the ORDER BY had the same columns than PARTITION BY or more.
