That patch circumvents the shortcutting of the execution chain at the first fail and might produce undesirable results elsewhere. Unless there's another interesting behaviour in Bash, it should suffice to follow the last command in the "&&" chain by "|| false" to transfer the status of the chain to PIPESTATUS (provided that the return code of the functions involved is set correctly).
