s/for some time without complaints/ in 512f41cfac5 (clean.c: use designated initializer, 2017-07-14) which is almost a year without complaint/ maybe?

    if (!name)
        break;

maybe? We do we need to check for 'name' in the next condition? What input do we expect/allow?

Can you add a comment here saying what mapping is or should look like?
