Here we set up CQ_SQ, but there is no PAGER_ENV_SQ.

Here we depend on writing PAGER_ENV_SQ, which will be blank (and git-sh-setup is broken as a result).

Is it worth setting up PAGER_ENV's default values before including config.mak.*, and then using "+=" here? That avoids this line getting out of sync with the usual defaults.

I know you said you don't like string parsing in C. Here is a patch (on top of yours) that converts the parsing to shell, and generates a pre-built array-of-struct (this is similar to the big series I posted long ago, but just touching this one spot, not invading the whole Makefile). Feel free to ignore it as over-engineered, but I thought I'd throw it out there in case it appeals.
