Hi Oilvier,
As we discussed before, I send this patch. Would you like to take a look at it? Better fix it before release 17.05, thanks.

> 
> When parsing a CLI, all the CLI instances are checked one by one. Even if an
> instance already matches the CLI, the parsing will not stop for ambiguous
> check.
> The problem is that the following check may change the parsing result of the
> previous one even if the following instance doesn't match.
> 
> Use a temporary validate for the parsing result when trying to match an
> instance and only store the result when it matches, so the previous result
> has no chance to be changed.
