[j-nsp] Policy ordering in 8.0

[nachocheeze at gmail.com]

Looks like it changed specifically in 7.4, (one rev up from my 7.3).
It's listed at the very end of the 7.4 release notes; guess I just
missed it.

"Policy statements—When you configure several policy statements using
the policy-statement configuration statement at the [edit
policy-options] hierarchy level, and then you enter the show
policy-options command, the output will display the policy statements
in alphabetical order. Previously, the output from the show
policy-options command displayed the policy statements in the order in
which they were configured."

Thanks!
