The existing shell script is a fork bomb and forks off hundreds of grep/cur/wc calls as it reads from its input stream and iterates over the file data table for each line of input. This patch replaces the shell code with python code which doesn't exec anything and hence runs much faster without the exec() overhead. This speeds up rpm packaging considerably, as can be measured simply by timing it, or watching the processor utilisation.
