It's more different than it looks like.  For example, remove_section needs this,

        if (buf[i] == '[') {
                if (section_name_match (&buf[i + 1], name)) {
		} else
			...
	}

while rename_section can use

        if (buf[i] == '[' && section_name_match (&buf[i+1], old_name)) {

and has more indenting in it.  The amount of indentation in the combined function is not makign things easier to read.
