This step seems very straight-forward and makes sense from a cursory
look.

s/stock/store/ perhaps?  I think the idea is not to have this file
in the default case so that absence of it would mean you would be
looking for a transition from (older) good to (more recent) bad.

We might want to see why fopen() failed here.  If it is because the
file did not exist, great.  But otherwise?

It is unclear what this variable means, or what it means to have
zero or one as its value.

Avoid "test <condition1> -a <condition2>" (or "-o").

It is sad that we need to open the file twice.  Can't we do
something using "read" perhaps?

Don't we want to make sure these two names are sensible?  We do not
want an empty-string, for example.  I suspect you do not want to
take anything that check-ref-format does not like.

Same comment applies to the C code.

What is voc?

What if "$1" is neither bad/good?

Did you mean to translate 'bad' to $NAME_BAD and 'good' to $NAME_GOOD?
