It's caused by the method the script uses to "repair" it. It loads the file contents into memory then sorts it and writes it to a file with a ".new" extension, the current whitelist file is renamed with ".old" appended to it and the ".new" file is renamed the the proper whitelist filename. The problem in this case is because he symlinked the file itself so when the script renamed the file the symlink was deleted.
