Comment:

 I got the same issue as "ggus" (reporter):


 {{{
 query_posts( array( 'post_type' => 'whatever', 'post_status' => 'publish',
 '''order_by' => 'menu_order''', 'order' => 'DESC' ) );
 }}}

 produces:

 {{{
 SELECT SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS wp_posts.* FROM wp_posts WHERE 1=1 AND
 wp_posts.post_type = 'whatever' AND (wp_posts.post_status = 'publish')
 ''ORDER BY wp_posts.post_date'' DESC LIMIT 0, 10
 }}}
