The impact of this fix is on {name} and later rules.
parse_events.l uses {name} only in one place.
The only rule defined after {name} is {name_tag}.
I think the point of current fix is that the rules defined after {name} are not
misrecognize and the syntax is not broken.
{name_tag} starts with ', but {name} does not contain'.
Therefore, the corrected {name} does not misrecognize the {name_tag}, and I
think there is no problem.
