I'll see what I can do about it.

Another statement says a map clause with `present` is effectively ordered before one without.  Which applies in the above example?  In some discussions, people agreed the statement about `present` was intended to have precedence, but the spec doesn't say that.  That resolution probably makes sense at entry to a region, but does it make sense at exit?  Would it suppress `from` in this example?  (Actually, should there be two reference counter decrements in this example or just one?)

In tgis implementation, the mapping withthe present modifier will be ordered to be the first.
