I think all this is more complicated than it has to be. How big  can
register names be? Few characters? Let's get rid of %m[a-z0-9] and
instead use fixed-max-length strings, e.g., %5s. And read register
names into such local char buffers. It will simplify everything
tremendously. Let's use 16-byte buffers and use %15s to match it?
Would that be enough?
