The code has been changed to respect what the manual and the help output was
showing: -V should be passed before the subcommand

The reason for this is was to make the code more easily maintenable and
understandable.

if really that is too painful I can allow again -V to be also passed after the
subcommand but at the price of complicating the code.

Best regards,
