You need a fix for that; didn't I already say "you need a bit more
than that"?

I disagree. Most of the contrib scripts are expected to be used as
they are.

You are only looking at one of the uses for this script, when there
are two.

You are correct that distros may install with whatever tweaks of
their own, and to help their tweak process (like the one that
specifically notices "/usr/bin/env python" as you wrote), changing
the "#!/usr/bin/python" to match others would be a good change.

But that change alone is not sufficient for this one, which is used
from t/ script.  You cannot treat this one like import-zips and
hg-to-git that we do not use in-tree.  Somewhere before t9020 uses
it, it needs the treatment similar to the rewriting that is done for
git-p4.py to git-p4.
