I upgraded to fixes/33, but I still see the incorrect ordering.

This log is produced by my own scripts, including the recording-pending
and recording-started scripts, as well as various scripts invoked
through mythexternrecorder configuration.

As you can see the recording pending event is fired during the same
second as the recording started event, but later, and with a negative
SECS parameter (-241 in the above example). This log is for a recording
that was due to start (according to the schedule data) at 7:55am, with
zero preroll in the recording rule itself, with RecordPreRoll set to
250, and with WakeUpThreshold set to 5.

Perhaps the fix hasn't made it into the mythbuntu ppa yet; will test
again tomorrow.

Cheers, Jan
