This is a binary executable we're talking about?  Sorry if i'm
insulting your intelligence, but exactly the same error occurs in
the following scenario

bash# cat ./test.sh 
#!/invalid/path

echo this is my test
exit 0
bash#
bash# ./test.sh 
bash: ./test.sh: No such file or directory

in this case, the shell can't find the necessary interpreter.

dunno if this helps or not, but i thought it was worth suggesting.
