Completion order is separate from data order and not guaranteed unless FI_ORDER_STRICT has been enabled.  I don't know how you structured your assert, but the completion with FI_MULTI_RECV flag set should be last, as it indicates that the buffer is safe to repost.

The fixes I was referring to are in that release.
