 * summary:
     Inconsistent results of QuerySet count() method using PostgreSQL
     backend prior and post the QuerySet evaluation
     =>
     Inconsistent results of QuerySet.count() when ordering is not a subset
     of explicit grouping.

Comment:

 FWIW the issue is not Postgres specific (I reproduced against SQLite).

 The problem appears to be caused by `sql.Query.get_aggregation`'s call to
 `clear_ordering(force=False)`. It seems like the later should skip
 clearing when `isinstance(self.group_by, tuple)`  and `self.order_by` is
 not a subset of `self.group_by` as `force=False` must only clear if doing
 to preserves the semantic of the query which it doesn't if `order_by`
 includes members missing from the group by (as they would normally be
 added).

 I adjusted the ticket summary accordingly.
