This looks like part of it is undoing stuff introduced in
[patch 1/3]?  I was going to ask what the stuff was in 1/3 and then
it got removed which makes me wonder why even more.  Could you write
something about why in your changelog?  Or if it's not needed then
remove it from the first patch.

Really it would be easier to review if you broke it up into one
patch per bug, with a description of what the bugs were instead of
"patch fixes all the bugs present there".

Some of these changes don't seem necessary.  It feels like you were
debugging and then when you got match() to work you just committed
all the changes instead of only the lines which are needed.
