This is fewer lines of code, but more importantly, fixes a bogus pointer offset. We are looking for "tar." in the section, but later assume that the dot we found is at offset 9, not 3. This is a holdover from an earlier iteration of 767cf45 which called the section "tarfilter".
As a result, we could erroneously reject some filters with dots in their name, as well as read uninitialized memory. Reported by (and test by) René Scharfe.
