Not quite.  All the cuesheets are embedded in the flacs.  The script
would have to extract all the cuesheets from 6,670 flac files via
metaflac, presumably -- and that would involve extracting ALL the
VORBIS_COMMENT tags, and then determining which VORBIS_COMMENT is the
embedded cuesheet, then scanning those extracted cuesheets for album
PERFORMER tags != to track PERFORMER tags, adding the REM COMPILATION 1
line to the extracted cuesheets, and finally re-embedding the
cuesheets.

Yes, doable in a script, but not as trivial as you suggest.
