I don't think that meta-programming will help check you the values. This can only be the case if the values are available (as const with external linkage) at compile time.
If you need the checking pattern to be generated during the compilation than take a look at boost::xpressive.

Hmm, I didn't quite get you. But I want to match both on *type* and *value*
as shown in this rule:

The type here is (Insn, Reg) [particular types of larger variants];
each component is also matched on the particular value ("addq" and
"%rsp" strings).

The type here is doesn't matter and (Imm x) - this is a match only
on type where the variable x gets bound to the value carried by
the variant type.
