I'm having trouble wrapping my head around a code "refactoring" which 
actually makes the code significantly *longer*.  The only interface 
change I could detect is the introduction of a function 
verify_config_option(), which should just be a small variation on 
set_config_option() as it currently exists.

I'm also about a relive a personal trauma if I see error messages like 
this:

    errmsg("configuration file is invalid")

I just had to deal with an unnamed product where this was all you got!

Please, explain again what this refactoring is supposed to achieve.

The second part of your patch actually looks pretty reasonable and does 
not appear to require the refactoring.
