Does this work?

No (at least not for me).
Did you actually try that, as opposed to the version you showed before?
There *is* a difference.
Of course I tried. :-)
I just tried again and it still does not work. However I noticed that it
works without any quoting for me too. Which I thought I tried before...
So for me (using Fedora Linux with Python 2.5, nothing unusual) the solution
would be to add
/usr/bin/env <unquoted path>
Probably this is the way to go forward. Let's see if the behavior is
different for BSDs (I have neither a Mac nor any BSD-based system available
right now).
OS X results (note, ~/foo exists and is a directory):
neutron:~ exarkun$ cat > foobar.sh
#!/Users/exarkun/foo bar/python
print 'yes'
neutron:~ exarkun$ chmod u+x foobar.sh
neutron:~ exarkun$ ./foobar.sh
-bash: ./foobar.sh: /Users/exarkun/foo: bad interpreter: Permission denied
neutron:~ exarkun$ cat > foobar.sh
#!/Users/exarkun/foo\ bar/python
print 'yes'
neutron:~ exarkun$ ./foobar.sh
-bash: ./foobar.sh: /Users/exarkun/foo\: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
neutron:~ exarkun$ cat > foobar.sh
#!"/Users/exarkun/foo bar/python"
print "yes"
neutron:~ exarkun$ ./foobar.sh
-bash: ./foobar.sh: "/Users/exarkun/foo: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
neutron:~ exarkun$ cat > foobar.sh
#!'/Users/exarkun/foo bar/python'
print 'yes'
neutron:~ exarkun$ ./foobar.sh
