Indeed.

Frankly, one reason it wasn't recommended was probably the fact that
postinstall scripts wouldn't run correctly on a full install, so you'd end
up with a broken one. Read on.

Setup *does* sort in dependency order, but there was a bug in script
detection that caused setup to fail to associate the scripts with their
packages, so all scripts were run in the catch-all clause, which sorted
alphabetically. This has also been improved in the recent setup
snapshots. I wish we could get a setup.exe release... Brian?
