bug#21505: 24.4; Buffer order

[hoppe]

No, and this is why it's a little weird. On my computer when I create the files a,b,c and run 

> emacs a b c 

the prompt of C-x b gives:

c 

b

a

*scratch*

*Messages*

with file c opened first. BUT, the order of NextBuffer goes [c->b->*Messages*->*scratch->a]

So it's just an issue with the order in which buffers are presented in
the prompt of "C-x b"?
