Yes exactly. With the addition that following works:

# print ${value//[b-z${foo}]/x}
xx

Looked at code few times when debugging, had an unexamined impression
that sister variable of "seen_brct" is needed:

-                   if (!in_brace_param)
-                       in_brace_param = bct;
+                   if (!in_brace_param) {
+                       if ((in_brace_param = bct))
+                           seen_brct = 0;
+                   }

if resetting seen_brct helps in one case but harms other one. Raw
thought, tokenization is a single-"thread" process, this might be just
absurd.
