Gerald already gave you some notes. BTW: accessing "unknown" memory can 
result in virtually *every* possible response ...

That's the main point that *needs* to be fixed and I guess it's the 
cause of the regression test problems. Unless there are other problems 
as well ;-)

Sorry for the noise, I didn't saw the pfctParse, so you'll actually need 
the if/switch construct anyway, regardless of the strings - just forget
