I'm not familiar with all the nuances of _regex_arguments, but my
impression from looking through a couple of the places where it is
used is that $words[1] always has to be the command name. That is, it
always expects to parse a complete command line by catenating $words
back together, so you can't have shifted the command name itself off
the front before you invoke it. You could probably get away with
shoving a dummy command word onto the front of $words, but I haven't
made any attempt to try it.
