>Description:
When using the -c flag in vi to tell it to execute a command on startup, it
ignores it unless a file is passed as extra argument.
If this file is provided, the command is executed, but the cursor jumps to
the end of the file.
>How-To-Repeat:
$ vi -c "q"
$ vi -c "q" foo
[first command fires up vi, second quits immediately]

$ vi -c "set wl=72"
[in vi, "set wl" will show that wl is not set]

$ vi -c "set wl=72" foo
[in vi, the cursor is at end of file and "set wl" will show "wraplen=72"]
