Just using the above regexps in cap-words.el doesn't work properly,
though perhaps it's closer.

With the new regexps, when moving forward with M-f, it stops one
character too early, and then the next M-f moves to the "proper" end of
the subword.  E.g. (digits mark the stopping positions):

 fooBarBAZ
   12 34  5   (actual)
    1  2  3   (desired)

Moving backward with M-b goes one character too far:

 fooBarBAZ
3  2  1       (actual)  
 3  2  1      (desired)

Thanks,
