Thanks for the updated version, it's really starting to take good shape.  A few
small comments on v37 from a a first quick skim-through:

+	if (!strcmp(key, AUTH_KEY))
+	if (*expected_bearer && !strcmp(token, expected_bearer))
Nitpickery but these should be (strcmp(xxx) == 0) to match project style.
(ironically, the only !strcmp in the code was my mistake in ebc8b7d4416).

+	foreach(l, elemlist)
This one seems like a good candidate for a foreach_ptr construction.

+	*output = strdup(kvsep);
There is no check to ensure strdup worked AFAICT, and even though it's quite
unlikely to fail we definitely don't want to continue if it did.

fail_validator.c seems to have the #include list copied from validator.c and
pulls in unnecessarily many headers.

+    client's dummy reponse, and issues a FATAL error to end the exchange.
s/reponse/response/

In validate() I wonder if we should doublecheck that have a a proper set of
validator callbacks loaded just to make even more sure that we don't introduce
anything terrible in this codepath.

I will keep reviewing this version to try and provide more feedback.
