Sounds like a bug in the default config for your release. Do you have 3.0a1?
That's the only version that I have that suffers from this bug, but my
collection is not comprehensive.

3.0a2 and higher have correctly moved it to the bottom of the file.

2.1.2-5 and 2.0.2 don't even have the word "default" in the file at all.
