I know this post does not answer your query, but I came across a few
interesting solutions to the problem. One was to do away with shebang
itself (http://homepages.cwi.nl/~aeb/std/shebang/)
That was a nice article...however it is really hard to come up with
something as convenient as this mechanism. Even if I were to limit
myself to linux, it is still a problem when it comes to interpreters
like perl, python etc; even if you were to tie yourselves down with
/bin/sh for shell programming (being a zsh user, I know how limiting
it is). I guess the only solution for this would be for FHS to get env
in /bin. The problem with /usr/bin/env is that if it can be there, it
can also be in /usr/local/bin/env. There are no alternatives if you
can fix it to /bin/env. Linux with a 127 char limit ??!!
Well...yeah...I saw the source as well...that's disappointing...may be
the kernel developers have other reasons...
it moves on...
