This needs to be size_t. Even though it's not used to directly access
entries of @matches array, it kind of is. It's used to count them. And
int is not guaranteed to be able to address all of them.

This can be rewritten so that we don't need @n at all:

  if (iter == matches && matches[1])
      continue;

Or even better, just start iterating not from the first but second entry:

    for (iter = &matches[1]; *iter; iter++)
        printf("%s\n", *iter);

This is safe because:
a) @matches is guaranteed to be non-NULL at this point (due to check above),
b) @matches is NULL terminated array and as you and documentation [1]
say, the first entry is substitution for text (which we want to skip).

So even if the array is nothing but the substitution and NULL,
matches[1] will be NULL:

  matches = { "subs", NULL };

Also, I'm adding a small comment because it is not obvious why we are
skipping the first entry.

ACK then.
