The doc string for command-switch-alist says "HANDLER-FUNCTION receives
switch name as sole arg" when it really means "HANDLER-FUNCTION receives
SWITCH-STRING as its sole arg", which can lead to confusion (see
gnu.emacs.help message <401FDE6C.2010600@yahoo.com>). Here's a patch:

(defvar command-switch-alist nil
"Alist of command-line switches.
Elements look like (SWITCH-STRING . HANDLER-FUNCTION).
! HANDLER-FUNCTION receives switch name as sole arg;
! remaining command-line args are in the variable `command-line-args-left'.")
(defvar command-line-args-left nil
"List of command-line args not yet processed.")
