I see 2 issues:
1) s/return/exit/ or remove the '|| ret=1'. Both are not needed. return,
even from inside a subshell will work as expected.
2) This doesn't handle comments after the epoch value.

  awk -F'=' '/^[[:space:]]*epoch=/ { $1=""; print $0 }' "$BUILDFILE" | {
    read i _
    if [[ $i != +([[:digit:]]) ]]; then
      error "$(gettext "%s must be an integer.")" "epoch"
      return 1
    fi
  }
