Hmm, no ideas then. Your interface code looks fine (making parse_str
const seems a bit strange, but it's not related to the problem at hand).
Given that the problems appear at token boundaries I'd guess that re2c
isn't behaving the way you expect, but I'm not familiar with that tool
so I can't give any specific advice.

Well, it'd mainly be a question of whether there's enough interest out
there, which I can't judge. From a project standpoint we just require
that it be BSD-licensed and not impose any undue new burden on
maintainers (thus not wanting new build tools), but beyond that it's a
matter of how many people might use it.
