The documentation for the variable `interpreter-mode-alist'
states:
The car of each element, a regular expression, is compared
with the name of the interpreter specified in the first line.
If it matches, mode MODE is selected.
This doesn't match the actual functionality of `set-auto-mode'.
`set-auto-mode' uses `assoc' to look in `interpreter-mode-alist',
i.e., the car of the element has to be string-equal to the name of
the interpreter.
There is a small utility in allowing a regexp (I wanted to use
"python[0-9.]*"), but I wouldn't mind if the doc string were
fixed instead, for simplicity.
