I'm revisiting this "-" assignment. This was actually a hack to make
get_number_or_range believe it is handling a range. But, we already
have the state->in_range field for that. It was needed because get_number_of_range
checks *state->string != '-' _before_ checking state->in_range. But it doesn't
have to be that way -- if we swap that around, like in the hunk below, we no longer
need to hack state->string.

I'm squashing in this hunk with the patch, removing the hack, and reposting
a v2 series.
