The change made here is from this:

    entry \
    | sed -e 's/-/ /g' \
    | sort -k 3,3${reverse#-} -k 4,4${reverse#-}n \
    | sed -e 's/\(.*\) \(.*\)	\(.*\) \(.*\)/\1-\2	\3-\4/'


to this:

    entry \
    | sed -e 's/-/ /g' \
    | sort -k 3,3"${reverse#-}" -k 4,4"${reverse#-}"n \
    | sed -e 's/\(.*\) \(.*\)	\(.*\) \(.*\)/\1-\2	\3-\4/'

I *think* that change is a noop, according to POSIX (`reverse' is
either the empty string or `-r'), but the old version of bash I'm
using expands these differently.
