Eli suggested:
>>> etags --regex="/[ \t]*\([^ \t]+\)[ \t]+_ARGS/\1/" ...
and in reply to my changes said:

Yes. The difference is a small one: "_ARGS[0-9]" only matches function
definition lines, while using only "_ARGS" will also match declarations.

The idea was that instead of cluttering up the TAGS file with two
lines for every tag, such as
foo _ARGS2^?foo^A50,100
foo _ARGS2(^?50,100
as a result of using --regex, a post edit that allowed one to do
"s/[ \t]+_ARGS[0-9]*//" could simply remove the _ARGS2 part and reduce
the default etags line to:
foo(^?50,100
thus (I'm guessing) clarifying things a different way.
