I've not noticed any intances of maplint reporting unordered ways 
incorrectly

In JOSM if you download an area which has ordered ways, add a segment to 
that way, and then reorder the way, then in many instances the way will 
still be unordered.  You first have to save the data, then reload it, and 
then reorder the way.
