Overall it's better I still have some minor comments which can be addressed only if you are going to make another submission.

I can send a v4A for this patch.

nit: 'on' here will either be 0 or 1 (awk doesn't have a separate boolean type).

No change proposed here, right?

nit: 's' -> 'state', though is 'state' the most appropriate word here?

's' is the tag string, "REQUIRED" or "DISABLED".

+                if (feat) {
+                    st = !!featstat[s, feat];

No point in doing the !! dance here, the value written there is already true or false since it comes as a result from the earlier check. Just drop the !! also what's with the 1 or 2 letter variables. 'st'-> 'enabled' then the check reads 'if (enabled) { foo }'

Sounds reasonable, I can make the change.
