One approach would be to include it as part of the distribution.  You
could add the script to the binutils/ directory and arrange for it to
installed if the target is i386-network.  This assumes that you would
be OK with the script living in the binutils project and that you
would be prepared to sign an FSF copyright assignment for it, and that
you would be willing to act as a maintainer for the script.

A simpler method would be to archive the script on the herd website
and just have a link from the binutils project web page to your web
page.
