VSS policy statements are processed from the bottom up and processing 
stops at the first match. To ensure that more specific specifications 
are processed at all, the more general specification should be listed 
before the more specific ones, so as to be processed after the more 
specific specifications. Otherwise, the more general specification will 
match the target before the more specific specifications are seen.
