The ordering of a fresh shorewall install appears to have changed at some time (the changelog for the spec file includes an entry for the 1.4.7-1.fdr.3.a release where it was deliberately set up to start before networking). If you installed the package at that time, or at any time until the package was changed back to start after networking, that's the ordering your system would use; upgrades to the package will not run chkconfig and fix the ordering.
