Thanks. I am unsure if a python2 script from 2011 is consistent with a 
sh expanding "$@" to empty string, but the reason of the construct might 
be just muscle memory or some guide.

The wiki article considers a symlink that was my original idea. It seems 
"exit 1" can not ensure certain exit code even if exec fails (at least 
with current versions of dash and bash). In addition I see no value of 
/usr/bin/env in shell script. It is appropriate for the python script 
shebang "#!/usr/bin/env python" (present since its initial commit).

P.S.
Portable shell section in autoconf manual mentions "${1+"$@"}" issues 
with zsh (the script above requires /bin/sh explicitly):
