Well, that certainly works, and I will probably take it, as the series
itself is a nice cleanup and is in the right direction. However this
leaves this problem still being around: the mctl_check_pattern()
function fails, even if this is apparently the right configuration. So
we should figure out what's going on, even though with 1/5 dropped and
5/5 changed accordingly it works (TM) the same as before.
