Let me reword this so it fits the way my variant works.

The behaviour is somewhat similar to a strtok_r variant with quoting
support. A quoted token has to have exactly one doublequote each at the
beginning and the end and has to be followed by end-of-string ('\0') or
a delimiter. \a *startp points to the string which should be parsed. If
the string does not start with a quote, it is terminated at the first
character contained in \a delimiters by replacing it with '\0'. If the
string starts with a quote, it is terminated at the second (terminating)
quote by replacing it with '\0'.

Your variant and my variant don't really conform to this description in
case of delimiters after the closing quote. Will fix mine.

It would be useful as a tokenizer for layout files, though. I can make
this optional or kill it, but the handling of arbitrary amounts of
whitespace between start:end and regionname needs to be done somewhere.

Thanks for catching that.

That is intentional. " is not a delimiter, and that means we are not
allowed to break up a string there. As such, """ is as invalid as ""foo.

Yes, my variant is a tokenizer with quoting support.
Your variant is a tokenizer which only cares about the supplied
delimiters if there is no quoting and implicitly replaces the specified
delimiters with " if there is quoting.

New unqote as standalone program for easier testing. It now should
handle all the fun stuff you can throw at it.
Suggested example inputs (single quotes are there to protect against the
shell):
' foo '
' "foo" '
'foo '
'"foo" '
'foo'
'"foo"'
'foo bar'
'"foo bar"'
''
'""'
and some inputs which should throw an error:
'"'
'"""'
'"foo'
'foo"'
'"foo"bar'
