See the URL for example, these diffs were in this order. They were created in the same minute. Page history show them in opposite order, which makes diffs selected from page history look very funny (or stupid, depending on who does the look).
Also http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php? title=User:Ems57fcva/sandbox/General_relativity_2&action=history . The comments for the diffs are in the right order, but the versions are mixed up, with the more recent one (currently the current revision) being listed second.

Recent occurance in the English Wikipedia: In the [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php? title=Hurricane_Katrina&action=history Hurricane Katrina history], there are the following edits in this order: (cur) ([http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php? title=Hurricane_Katrina&diff=35917800&oldid=35917605 last]) 00:38, January 20, 2006 AySz88 (Popups-assisted reversion to revision 35895397) <br/> (cur) ([http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php? title=Hurricane_Katrina&diff=35917605&oldid=35917601 last]) 00:36, January 20, 2006 The pi pirate (Popups-assisted reversion to revision 35895397) <br/> (cur) ([http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php? title=Hurricane_Katrina&diff=35917601&oldid=35917446 last]) 00:36, January 20, 2006 131.52.121.101 (→Evacuation and emergency shelters) <br/> (cur) ([http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php? title=Hurricane_Katrina&diff=35917446&oldid=35895397 last]) 00:34, January 20, 2006 131.52.121.101 (→Synopsis) <br/> The diffs show how the history is jumbled. The 0036 vandal edit was applied to the article *after* the 0036 revert, but the history lists the revert and the vandalism backwards (it appears like vandal-vandal-revert-revert when it should be vandal-revert-vandal-revert). Some discussion occured at [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Lupin#Popups_revert_race_condition.3F Lupin's en User Talk], where Lupin, the creator of the Popups tool, agrees that it seems to be a bug with Mediawiki and not his own Popups tool.
