Oh, excellent.

This is a blocker.  It's definitely not hard.

This would certainly clean up all of the string processing that I mentioned.
It seems like it would be just as easy to convert into the decodetree format as
what you're currently doing for dectree_generated.h.  Indeed, easier, since you
only need the ones that are TERMINAL().  All of the other things labeled
TABLE_LINK are handled by decodetree itself.

Anyway, I've completed what review I planed to do against this version.
