Per POSIX, join(1) (in modes other than -o) is a concatenation of selected
character fields. The joined field is first, followed by fields in the
order they occurred in the input files.
Our join(1) utility previously handled this correctly for lines with a match
in the other file. But it failed to order output fields correctly for
unmatched lines, printed in -a and -v modes.
A simple test case is:
$ touch a
$ echo "2 1" > b
$ join -v2 -2 2 a b
1 2

Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same
numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.
