They pull the regex out of the history buffer, which no longer match
the files that have just been removed:
% touch 1 2 3 4 5 6
% rm [1-6]
% echo !$
echo [1-6]
echo: No match.

: and look, then think some more about your ``context'' situation above.
But the expansion of the regex isn't in the buffer. That's why I
needed the {}'s. Those exand w/o reguard to files matching them.

Nah, you keep it :-).
