Your code assumes that the arglist has been inserted at a particular place
in the buffer, which is not necessarily a reliable way to get the info
you need.
Instead, you could hook into describe-function-1 at the place where the
corresponding text is inserted, at which point you know exactly where that
text is, without needing any heuristic.
