I'm having trouble getting a Perl script to automatically start the
interpreter via the #! mechanism.  It appears to be sensitive to the
length of the interpreter name I give in the #! line.  I haven't seen
anything like this in SunOS.  Is there known to be some difficulty in
Ultrix (V3.1 Rev. 9) with this feature?
