+# @param $2 When any of the options `-EFG' is specified, the second argument is
+#   used as a pattern string whose meaning is determined by the option `-EFG'.
+#   Otherwise, the second argument specifies the command that tests the array
+#   element.  The command is supposed to exit with:
+#
+#     status 0 .... when the element should be preserved
+#     status 1 .... when the element should be removed
+#     status 2 .... when the usage of the predicate is wrong
+#     status 27 ... when the loop should be canceled.  All the remaining
+#                   elements will be preserved regardless of the presence of
+#                   option `-r'.
+#
+#   The other exit statuses are reserved and cancel the array filtering with an
+#   error message, and the function returns with the exit status 2.  If this is
+#   an existing command name, the command is called with the value of the array
+#   element being specified as the first command argument.  Otherwise, this
+#   shall be a shell command that tests the array-element value stored in the
+#   environment variable "value".
+#
+# Options:
+#
+#     The following options specify the type of the pattern.  When multiple
+#     options are supplied, the last-specified one overwrite the previous
+#     option.
+#
+#     -E          $2 is interpreted as a POSIX extended regular expression.
+#                 The default anchoring is `-m` (see below).
+#     -F          $2 is interpreted as a fixed string.  The default anchoring
+#                 is `-m` (see below).
+#     -G          $2 is interpreted as a glob pattern.  The default anchoring
+#                 is `-x` (see below).
+#
+#     Combined with any of -EFG, the following options specify the anchoring
+#     type of the pattern matching.  When multiple options are supplied, the
+#     last-specified one overwrites the previous option.
+#
+#     -p          performs the prefix matching.
+#     -s          performs the suffix matching.
+#     -m          performs the middle matching.
+#     -x          performs the exact matching.
+#
+#     -r          Revert the condition, i.e., remove elements that satisfy
+#                 the original condition.
+#     -C          Array compaction is not performed.
+#
+# @return 2 with a wrong usage, 1 when any elements are removed, 0 when the set
+#   of array elements are unchanged. [ Note: the compaction will be performed
+#   (without the option -C) even when the set of array elements are
