I may be missing the point here, but option ordering doesn't
seem to make any difference:
freebsd# uname -n -r -s -v -m
FreeBSD freebsd.ki.net 2.2-CURRENT FreeBSD 2.2-CURRENT #6: Sun Apr 14 02:51:52 EDT 1996 scrappy@freebsd.ki.net:/usr/src/sys/compile/freebsd i386
freebsd# uname -m -n -r -s -v
FreeBSD freebsd.ki.net 2.2-CURRENT FreeBSD 2.2-CURRENT #6: Sun Apr 14 02:51:52 EDT 1996 scrappy@freebsd.ki.net:/usr/src/sys/compile/freebsd i386
freebsd# uname -a
FreeBSD freebsd.ki.net 2.2-CURRENT FreeBSD 2.2-CURRENT #6: Sun Apr 14 02:51:52 EDT 1996 scrappy@freebsd.ki.net:/usr/src/sys/compile/freebsd i386
The man page states:
-a Behave as though the options -m, -n, -r, -s, and -v were speci-
fied.
It doesn't say in what order, just that it will behave as if all were
specified.
