Thanks. I applied patches 2, 4, and 5. For patch 4 I removed
print-defaults and tests from the GetOptions line. For patch 5 I
modified the indentation of the return statement and let the comment
begin with an capital letter.

Re code style: How should values assigned: "x = 5" or "x=5"?

Patch 1 and 3 look good. Before applying, I like to see the files that
triggers the wrong result fixed by these patches.

Using the names from the copyright-format-1.0 sounds a good idea. What
do the other devscripts maintainer think?
