The Gmsh file format
http://geuz.org/gmsh/doc/texinfo/gmsh.html#MSH-ASCII-file-format
does not specify the order of the blocks. I noticed that, Gmsh writes
out PhysicalNames before Nodes and Elements (as opposed to the format
specification), but if you exchange the Node and Element
specifications such that elements are mentioned first, Gmsh will bail
out.
A clarifying sentence there would be very much useful.
