That one seems ok (except you need "s around the $file in [ -d $file ]).
In this case, I guess the plan is that I run the script and commit the
result using the commit message and authorship from the above mail ...

(I would also replace the first three commands with

sed -En 's/^[FX]:[[:space:]]*([^[*?]*[^[*?/])$/\1/p' MAINTAINERS

/me puts away his yak razor :-))
