Yeah, this has been complained about before.  The problem is that
pg_dump's DOTypeNameCompare() function sorts only by object name,
and if the names are the same then by object OID (which typically
boils down to being the creation order).  Ideally we should get it
to consider more data, such as the argument lists for similarly-named
functions, before falling back on OID order.

If you're not up to hacking a fix for that, you could try dropping
the functions and re-creating them in the same order on both machines,
so that the OID sort produces similar results.
