Comment(by hakre):

 Patch has been refreshed against trunk. As said, the way how headers are
 parsed are basically the same. I changed the regexes to reflect [16215].
 In difference to the current parser, this one expects all headers to be
 lined-up in one block (one after the other, one per line) and it actually
 expects a header to have a value. In the current implementation this
 differs, it looks for headers everywhere in the first 8KB of the file
 (which turned out the error in #15193 most probably) and does not take
 care if a header actually contains a value or not.

 I've tested the 13699.step1-r2.patch against a multitude of plugins with
 different formattings, and it looks good to me so far. But I have not run
 it against a list of all plugins from the repository for example.
