This is why Warner's X-resource-like proposal is the only method for
passing parameters to modules that I am likely to accept.
argv/argc and getopt() are just not good enough.
If someone want to implement a simple resource matcher, you could start
by coming up with a tiny, tidy glob() for the kernel. We can use it
elsewhere as well...
