I quote from IBM OS/2 Programming Tools and Information 1.2, I/O Subsystems and
Device Support, Volume 1, page 2-20. 

   "POSITION RULE An interrupt handler that shares an interrupt level must
         not depend on its position in the list of handlers for that inter-
         rupt level."

There is no mention of the calling sequence applied by the interrupt manager.
