The term rewrite rules, to me, says sendmail.cf They have a special syntax and nature, and their placement and exact construction depends on the version fo sendmail you are writing for. Rewrite rules keep being applied until they do not change the entity any more, so sometimes you have to change it a+ to b and then b to a, becaulse a is in a+.

Google helps me see you might be more likely talking apache URL rewrite. I wonder if there is an apache forum?

Most of us write in our head in pseudo-code, not awk, and then translate it into the desired language.

It looks like you are short a slash in the example. If your object to to use m., then you need to not use HTTP_HOST or just prefix it with 'm.' if it is a domain name.

NAME
tomoyo-patternize - utility to convert pathnames in policy into patterns SYNOPSIS
tomoyo-patternize tomoyo-patternize [configfile] DESCRIPTION
This program reads domain policy from standard input and replaces pathnames with patterns. Replacement rules are defined in /etc/tomoyo/tools/patternize.conf. The resulting policy is sent to standard output and is useful to shorten and simplify domain or exception policy. Pathnames used for domain names themselves will not be replaced. Only the first matching rule is used for any particular pathname. If a pathname does not match any rules, it is left unchanged. EXAMPLES
Replace "proc:/self/fd/0" with "proc:/self/fd/$" rewrite path_pattern proc:/self/fd/$ Replace "proc:/123/status" with "proc/$/status" rewrite head_pattern proc:/$ Replace "dev(8,1):/etc/mtab~456" with "dev(8,1):/etc/mtab~$" rewrite tail_pattern /etc/mtab~$ Replace "/tmp/phpZjk1k3" with @GROUP1 rewrite path_pattern /tmp/php?????? @GROUP1 Replace integers between 0-100 or 100-200 with @GROUP2 rewrite number_pattern 0-100 @GROUP2 rewrite number_pattern 100-200 @GROUP2 Replace loopback addresses with @LOCALHOST rewrite address_pattern 127.0.0.1 @LOCALHOST rewrite address_pattern 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1 @LOCALHOST See the configuration file for more information on rule syntax.
