If I may add two cents here.
Binutils could use this.
Setup could use this.
A standalone tool may be useful.
libtool could use a binutils or standalone util.
install.sh could "
So I'd suggest you make your utilitie a verrry thin wrapper around a
library, and put everything functional in the library.
