Why use bash at all? That requires painful and inefficient argument
quoting, etc.
Just invoke Python itself directly i.e. get subprocess to fork/exec (aka
spawn) a new invocation of Python instead of using execfile.

  Many thanks. I ran some initial tests regarding your suggestions, and
things look good.
