This is probably a useful improvement.

Having said that, when I mentioned "glob", I meant to also support
something like this:

	https://www[1-4].ibm.com/

And when people read "glob", that is what they expect.

So calling this "the ability to use globbing" is misleading.
The last paragraph in the log message above needs a bit of
tweaking, perhaps like this:

	Allow users to write an asterisk '*' in place of any 'host'
	or 'subdomain' label as part of the host name.  For example,
	"http.https://*.example.com.proxy"; sets "http.proxy" for all
	direct subdomains of "https://example.com";,
	e.g. "https://foo.example.com";, but not
	"https://foo.bar.example.com";.

Fortunately, your update to config.txt, which is facing the end
users, does not misuse the word and instead is explicit that the
only thing the matcher does is to match '*' to a single hierarchy.
It is clear that even http://www*.ibm.com/ is not supported from
the description, which is good.

This is good as-is.

This is not "glob".  A more generic term "wildcard" is OK.

Hmph, this will be the first use of strtok_r() in our codebase.
Does everybody have it?

For a use like this where your delimiter set is a singleton, it may
be simpler to do the usual strchrnul() or memchr() based loop.  The
attached is my attempt to do so on top of this patch.

s/glob/asterisk/

Other than that, the patch looks OK.
