Mark,
You are right that this would fix only one script and if otherwise the fix is
acceptable I am willing to change all scripts in the directory to use the same
approach.

On the other hand, there is one other script (roll-over-ChangeLogs) which uses
the same approach, so it can be argued that since it is ok for that script it
should be ok for this script too.

I believe that the /usr/bin/env approach  does not make sense for standard
shells (such as /usr/bin/sh), but may be useful for perl, python and ruby
scripts where many incompatible versions may exist in the system.
