Hmm, I didn't realize this had died. Anyway I ran coder (code review) and it guided for a few changes. There are still some issues as follows. Dunno if anybody will be there to pick this up.

Line 81: new hook_theme() function is required to register theme_ functions (Drupal Docs)
function theme_taxonomy_multi_edit_overview(&$form) {

severity: critical Line 17: The menu system has been completely over-hauled in 6.x. (Drupal Docs)
  if ($may_cache) {

severity: critical Line 18: The menu system has been completely over-hauled in 6.x. (Drupal Docs)
    $items[] = array('path' => 'admin/content/node/taxonomy_multi_edit', 'title' => t('assign categories'),

severity: critical Line 57: hook_form_alter() parameters have changed (Drupal Docs)
    taxonomy_form_alter($fakeform, array(), $node->type .'_node_form');

severity: critical Line 130: hook_form_alter() parameters have changed (Drupal Docs)
    taxonomy_multi_edit_content_form_alter($form, array(), $form_id);

severity: critical Line 156: $form['#submit'] and $form['#validate'] no longer support custom parameters
  $form['#submit']['taxonomy_multi_edit_content_form_submit'] = array();    

severity: critical Line 175: taxonomy_node_get_terms(), taxonomy_node_get_terms_by_vocabulary(), and taxonomy_node_delete() now take a full $node object, not just a nid (node id). (Drupal Docs)
        $existing = taxonomy_node_get_terms($nid);

I would also like to see this module get ported D6.
I didn't realize how much I depended on it until I started prepping a site to upgrade and kept using it to clean up some categories and nodes.

Ok, stupid me, I didn't see your post and spent time to port it myself. Anyway I put my patch here, perhaps this will help in some ways.

I didn't know about "code review", any link ?

The patches here didn't seem to solve the content admin 'node operations' selector (which was admittedly tricky), so I did a full rewrite for D6.
Release now up!

Menu titles and descriptions have internal translation

function taxonomy_multi_edit_menu() {
  $items['admin/content/node/taxonomy_multi_edit'] = array( 
-    'title' => t('Assign categories'),
+    'title' => 'Assign categories',
    'page callback' => 'drupal_get_form',
    'page arguments' => array('taxonomy_multi_edit_overview'),
    'access arguments' => array('administer nodes'),
    'weight' => 5,
    'type' => MENU_LOCAL_TASK
  );
  return $items;
}

Cool. Thanks for that.
This is what peer review is all about!
updated here

I also found a few inconsistancies by testing on another dev system and finally got a useful warning from PHP STRICT_NOTICES that revealed a genuine error!
First time ever! This makes it 0.005 useful instead of 0.000
(the DRUPAL-6--1-0 release was inadvertently deleting existing tags - which is pretty wrong)

A stable version incorporating this may get tagged soon, after a few more demo tests. We need an updated screenshot etc

Suppose better to make -dev - more people can test before release
