Sorry for the noise. I gave up and did it the traditional way:

let colpos_l = []
let colpos = 0
let str_len = strlen(line)
while colpos < str_len
let colpos = matchend(sepline, '-\+\ze\s', colpos)
if colpos < 0
break
elseif colpos > 0
" call add(colpos_l, colpos)
call add(colpos_l, colpos)
endif
endwhile

I will make a 'plugin' of a generalized version of this though...
