I find this entire discussion rather silly; being as the Unix way is
the most flexible. I mean, what part of the system knows better what
shell interpreter a shell script should be run by, than the shell
script file itself? Why not just use the #! syntax, and make the kernel
know to follow the current system path.
I swear, some people just have a deathwish for all Unix semantics. Gad..
