Phony abstraction.  And it leaks: code here assumes the
STRTOSZ_DEFSUFFIX_T* are all upper case.

qemu_toupper() - whats the problem?

If a STRTOSZ_DEFSUFFIX_T? expands to a lower case character, its case
will not match any input.

Right, so one has to be careful when adding new suffix constants.
However given that we already have all the likely to be used ones for
the near future, that isn't exactly a big issue.

On the other hand forcing the use of the macros makes it less likely
that someone specifies an unsupported constant by hitting 'y' instead of
't' or similar.

Calls for a comment right next to the definition of the
STRTOSZ_DEFSUFFIX_T*.

I hate unstated restrictions that are hidden far away from the place
where you can break them.

Takes a combination of butterfingers, cross-eyedness, and near-total
incompetence at basic smoke-testing.

Well I am fine with a comment in the code.

Not really, all it takes is someone writing a piece of code, not
thinking about it, therefore only testing things where a suffix is
specified as an argument and it gets missed.

Such a comment improves it from "wrong" to merely "ugly".  I can live
with that.

Thanks.

I realize that you view it as such, in other eyes it goes from hackish
to correct ... there is zero point in arguing over this, we can just
agree to disagree.
