The order isn't undefined, and add-hook carefully distinguishes
between negative and nonnegative depths in this case. It's just that
the relative ordering of depths with the same sign but different
"localness" isn't considered/documented.
How about documenting something along those lines?
In "Running hooks", amend the paragraph
"If the hook variable is buffer-local, the buffer-local variable will
be used instead of the global variable.  However, if the buffer-local
variable contains the element @code{t}, the global hook variable will
be run as well."
to say that the global hook is run at exactly the place where the "t" appears.

In "Setting hooks", amend the paragraph
"If @var{local} is non-@code{nil}, that says to add @var{function} to the
buffer-local hook list instead of to the global hook list.  This makes
the hook buffer-local and adds @code{t} to the buffer-local value."
to specify where the "t" is added (IIUC it's appended if depth > 0 and
prepended otherwise).
