>Description:
zgrep "pattern1 pattern2" file.gz assumes that pattern2 is also a file name; fails to produce correct results

>How-To-Repeat:
% cat > zgrep-problem-demo
aa ab ac
ba bb bc
ca cb cc
db dc dd
<EOF>
% gzip zgrep-problem-demo
% zgrep "a b" zgrep-problem-demo.gz
grep: b: No such file or directory
zgrep-problem-demo.gz:aa ab ac
zgrep-problem-demo.gz:ba bb bc
zgrep-problem-demo.gz:ca cb cc

compare that with the correct result:

% zcat zgrep-problem-demo.gz | grep "a b"
ba bb bc
