This would not be future-proof.  In C23, if you pass a const char * into 
strchr(), you also get a const char * as a result.  And in this case, we 
do write into the area pointed to by the result.  So with a const char 
*token, this whole thing would not compile cleanly under C23.

Yeah, surely there are many possible implementations.  I'm thinking, 
since we already took other str*() functions from OpenBSD, it makes 
sense to do this here as well, so we have only one source to deal with.
