Would the existing caller be OK with this change?

It used to be that this parsing code simply _ignored_ unrecognised
trailer keyword because the very original just did a "break" and
fell though, but now because this returns non-zero, it causes the
caller rewritten in the patch [v2 1/3] to "goto trailer_out".

It is not clear from your proposed log message if this would result
in behaviour change, and if so if that behaviour change was intended.

I suspect that the behaviour change the code implements may be OK,
but the log message needs to discuss why it is OK.

Thanks.
