I try eval:
(call-process-region 1 6 "cat" nil t)
and get
(args-out-of-range 0 5)
call-process-region(0 5 "cat" nil t)
Also I get same error with such code:
(with-temp-buffer
(insert "hello")
(message "ret: %d" (call-process-region 0 (point-max) "cat" nil t))
(message (buffer-string)))
What is wrong?

This works for me as expected. I cannot see how could it happen that
you specified positions 1 to 6 as the region and got an error about 0
to 5.

Buffer positions start from 1, so using zero will definitely and
correctly signal an error.
