Definition of reshuffle

On the news for the last two days we have been hearing that Gordon Brown, the new Prime Minister of the UK, has been reshuffling his cabinet. Here is the definition of reshuffle from the Concise Oxford English Dictionary:

 

reshuffle

n     verb

1     interchange the positions of (members of a team, especially government ministers).

2     rearrange.

n     noun an act of reshuffling.

 

Now, since this is Brown's FIRST ever cabinet arrangement, please explain to me how it can possibly comprise a reshuffle. I think it ranks as an arrangement or, much more sensibly, Mr Brown's first cabinet team!
