The .vimrc and .gvimrc files are sourced once on startup, rather than
for every file in args. My guess is that you are use setlocal rather
then set in your vimrc (or gvimrc file). This only makes sense if you
do that via an autocommand (like au BufAdd, au BufEnter, ...). You can
read about vim startup in the ":help startup", the third step (":help
vimrc") is to read the vimrc file. While windows are opened in the 11th
step.

Best regards,
Marcin
