Currently, MAX_TEMPLATE_NAME_LEN is the length of a template that
contains all valid fields. It may make sense to increase it since
there's a new field being added.

I suggest using a sizeof() to show where the number comes from (and
which can be visually shown to be correct):

#define MAX_TEMPLATE_NAME_LEN sizeof("d|n|d-ng|n-ng|sig|buf")

The sizeof() is calculated at compile time.
