Actually, I think the code+data size of this version is not much
different from the previous version. One might be able to come up with
a structure that you could encapsulate all the strings into and that
you could search through to find the right one, but it'd be tricky to
do that without making the structure end up containing a bunch of
padding and other wasted space that would add as much data size as you
saved in code size. Unless you have a great idea on the subject that
I'm not thinking of right after waking up :-)

I've done lots of this type of thing in the past,
putting the parsing knowledge into the data structure
and reducing the code to nearly nothing (at the expense
of more data than before).
But right now I'm not offering to do it, so no objection
from me to the current state. :)
Any other thoughts on this one? Jeff?
