I just took a look at this, and one thing that would have helped is if
you ported the end of the function first in a commit, and work your way
backwards (in one or more commits).

After reading through the whole thing, I saw that this is mostly a
straightforward start-to-finish port (besides factoring out code into
functions), but it would be much easier for reviewers to conceptualize
and discuss the different parts if they were already divided.
