New description:

 After running through get_posts(), the 'orderby' query var no longer
 contains the original value, but the final SQL code.

 Thus, instead of:

 {{{
 if ( 'some_value' == $wp_query->get( 'orderby' ) )
 }}}

 you have to do:

 {{{
 if ( isset( $wp_query->query['orderby'] ) && 'some_value' ==
 $wp_query->query['orderby'] )
 }}}
