I took a quick glance over your sample conf files.
Maybe it's just me, but aren't you doing things unnecessarily complicated?
For example, in control.conf there are lines like

CONTROL_TTY="/dev/tty9"

and further down there's

control="$(if test -n "$CONTROL_TTY"; then echo "--terminal=$CONTROL_TTY"; fi)\
         $(if test -n "$CONTROL_PORT"; then echo "--port=$CONTROL_PORT"; fi)\
        "

Why do you write the same information twice?
Wouldn't it be sufficient to just write

--terminal="/dev/tty9"

as I have suggested in my recently posted example? This would also
save you from having to write "DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING BEYOND THIS LINE".

Maybe I'm blind, but I don't see the advantage of your method...
