The only canned solution for parsing a bash script is bash. Think
about it the other way around: If you wanted to have a Python variable
made available to a bash script, the obvious thing to do is to invoke
Python. It's the same thing.

I recommend going with Hans Mulder's suggestion of a wrapper script;
that seems to be the cleanest option available.
