What about replacing the whole script by a python script?
That would save about 6 more forks :-)
I think we have no python dependency in the build system yet - while we
have for awk. That was also the original reason to go for a shell script.
If the situation changed, I would not vote against python, for sure.

We do. Even configure will fail now without Python:
if ! has $python; then
echo "Python not found. Use --python=/path/to/python"
exit 1
fi
QEMU depends on Python = Python 2 for QAPI, tracing and maybe more.
See scripts/*.py.
