Alright it looks like there is consensus to put the script in as-is.

Kevin, please update the patch to address my comment about x-ref'ing the
script from the file header, and the typo I just caught (on phab). Do you
need me to commit this for you?

Now that I think about it, AFAIK currently the only LLVM development
environment where a POSIX-compatible shell would not be available is for
people developing in Visual Studio, and I don't think they are very
interested in ctags :P

Also, Kevin, would you care to enlighten us mere mortals where you learned
the black art of writing readable shell scripts?
