Description Carlos O'Ryan 1999-07-09 19:48:35 CDT 
Calling ORB_init() is supposed to eat its arguments, but it re-orders the
arguments it does not consume, more precisely:

args:
  -Files file1 file2 file3 -SomethingOther huhu -SomethingOther2 hihi

args stack now:
- -Files
file1
file2
file3
- -SomethingOther
huhu
- -SomethingOther2
hihi

assume the -SomethingOther options gets parsed first:
args stack now:
- -Files
file1
file2
file3
hihi                         <--- rearranged by consume_arg
- -SomethingOther2             <--- rearranged by consume_arg
huhu                         <--- rearranged by consume_arg
- -SomethingOther              <--- rearranged by consume_arg

It is really a verbatim copy, closing it.
