Inside "" we have

1s                  make a find replace in first line
^(\#!.* )python$$   Is a regexp matching what to be replaced:
                    #!/usr/bin/env python
                    In detail:
                        ^       matches start of line
                        ()      marks a group
                        \#!.*   matches /usr/bin/env (ending with a
                                 space)
                        python  matches python!
                        $       matches end of line. I think this could
                                be the error as the line only ends once
\1 -S PYTHONPATH=${DATADIR} ${PYTHON_CMD}
                    This is what the previous expression is replaced
                    with:
                    \1  puts what was in the group () from first regexp
                        e.g. #!/usr/bin/env 
                    The rest is just to set the pythonpath before
                    executing python. I have never seen this though and
                    do not know if it will work
