The 'openssl ca' manual, found in http://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/ca.html, says:


-infiles
    if present this should be the last option, all subsequent arguments
    are assumed to the the names of files containing certificate
    requests. 

That should answer your question.  I'm considering this ticket resolved.
