Personally, I prefer lines with 80+ chars over lines broken with a
backslash. So, while I can understand that you do not always remove a
backslash to avoid churn, I think it is not warranted to *introduce* one
to shorten a line below 80 chars. But that's really just a matter of taste.

Several && missing here and later in the file.

I stopped reading here. This is too much to read in one go. This should
really be broken into several parts. For example, you changed
get_tag_header and added several <emptyfile redirections (which should
be /dev/null IMO); that has not a lot to do with "modernize style".
