I don't think anyone found any holes in this, except for the inability to read newlines in the parameters:

@echo off
setlocal enableDelayedExpansion
set argCnt=1
:getArgs
>"%temp%\getArg.txt" <"%temp%\getArg.txt" (
  setlocal disableExtensions
  set prompt=#
  echo on
  for %%a in (1) do rem . %1.
  echo off
  endlocal
  set /p "arg%argCnt%="
  set /p "arg%argCnt%="
  set "arg%argCnt%=!arg%argCnt%:~7,-2!"
  if defined arg%argCnt% (
    set /a argCnt+=1
    shift /1
    goto :getArgs
  ) else set /a argCnt-=1
)
del "%temp%\getArg.txt"
set arg
