Why don't you just submit the script as an OPAM package?  Then
"opam install compiler-conf" would give access to the
"opam compiler-conf" subcommand.

This seems orthogonal to regularly merging in switches based on
PRs, as those will be available via "opam update" very easily for
any interested user.
