The code is actually more readable the old way.
There is absolutely nothing wrong woth functions having multiple 'return'
statments in order to save the human reader having to parse the rest of
the if/else/endif clauses in the file.

what is the:
	if (...
	    S_ISREG(st.st_mode) &&
	    st.st_size > 0 &&
	    (uintmax_t)(intmax_t)st.st_size < SIZE_MAX) {
checkall about ?  (apart from wasting code space).

Also I have every reason to believe that 'else if' is discouraged by
the netbsd style guide.
