If people are OK with just sending the new file, that's cool with me.

Is the LSB standard sufficiently widely adopted to omit the older
format? I was concerned that there might be Linux versions we wanted
to support which wouldn't have a /lib/lsb/init-functions file to
source. If that's not an issue, I could submit this as a patch to the
existing file. (It'd be a - for almost every non-blank line in the
old, and a + for almost every non-blank line in the new, of course.)
