Comment(by nthiery):

 Replying to [comment:2 SimonKing]:
 > To my surprise, the change in the order of super categories was
 relatively harmless. In few cases, a test involving all_super_categories
 had to change.

 I am not so surprised, since most categories are actually used by some
 parent (which detects any incompatibility). But it's very nice to
 detect such incompatibilities earlier on and to catch them
 systematically in the TestSuite!

 Cheers,
             Nicolas
