Yes, I noticed this as well when I looked at this proc.  Probably a limitation in that procedure.  TBH I would change this over to use SGPLOT or GTL. 
proc sgplot data=xxx noautolegend;

  vbox aval / group=grp_var grouporder=data boxwidth=0.5 category=cat_var spread name="BOX";

run;


Or

proc template;

  define statgraph box;

    begingraph /;

      layout overlay /

        BoxPlot X=x_var Y=y_var/ _SortOrder_=Internal primary=true Group=grp_var spread=true boxWidth=0.5

      endlayout;

    endgraph;

  end;

run;
