On most Unicies #! magic may have only one parameter after the program; the program here is env, the parameter is python, and that's all. Adding python options will result in different errors - some platforms silently ignores the options, some reports an error, some tries to find "python -E -s" in the PATH and report "Bad command or file name".

Distro tools shouldn't be using /usr/bin/env in any case. Does

#!/usr/bin/python -E -s

work?
