# SYNOPSIS
#
#   AX_SYS_PERLSHARPBANG
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
#   Determine how the perl interpreter is located by the OS kernel and make
#   substitution variable PERL_SHEBANG available. Does AC_PATH_PROG to find
#   the path to perl. As a side-effect, that sets PERLINTERP and makes it
#   available as a substitution variable.
#
#   Note: The macro allows for the possibility (expected to be seldom used)
#   of an explicit user override (the "user" being the operator executing
#   the final 'configure' script, in this context) by making the option
#   argument like:
#
#     --with-perl-shebang='#! /my/funky/perlpath' # OR
#     --with-perl-shebang='/my/funky/perlpath'  # we just throw away the #! anyway
#                                               # bec it must be absent in Makefile
#
#   Rationale: The are various ways of starting an interpreter on different
#   *nix-like systems. Many use the simple
#
#     #!/usr/bin/perl
#
#   but it could be instead
#
#     #!/usr/local/bin/perl
#
#   and there is even the possibility that the user wants
#
#     #!/usr/bin/env perl
#
#   to find whichever perl comes first in the current $PATH. This is
#   preferred by some of us because we run multiple perl installations on
#   the same box. Adjusting our $PATH then allows us to set precedence over
#   other perls, even whatever the "house" version is.
#
#   Users on very non-unix systems like MS Windows do not have a kernel that
#   does this kind of thing from the first line of script files, but instead
#   the perl on their machine is started and merely notices whatever comes
#   after the interpreter path on this first line of the script (options
#   like "-w").
#
#   Acknowledgement: this macro was in part inspired by Dean Povey's
#   AC_PROG_PERL_VERSION.
