I can reproduce this.

fned it and add «typeset -p w >/dev/tty» right before the call and
you'll see that w=('' -h) at that point; then, the parameter expansion
in the call to _pids isn't quoted and expands to an empty string, hence
it's elided, causing the error.

Unsure of the fix.

Cheers,

Daniel
