Yeah, sorry just noticed this morning while I was rebasing patch 6,
which had changed it to do the right thing inadvertently. It means
that if the backend has attached multiple tags (ID_INPUT.tags="foo
bar" for udev), only the first one would be matched. Also, a more
subtle bug would be that you get kind of substring matching of the
tag: MatchTag "foobar" would match ID_INPUT.tags="bar" whereas we're
advertising strcmp comparison.

I'll update the commit message with something useful and repost.
