If we're opting for broadest portability here, then you might want to consider
using `#!/usr/bin/env sh'. /usr/bin/env has been available on Unices for a long
time, and it benefits from pulling sh off PATH, which ends up working better in
my experience under various "funny" environments such as containers, temporary
build environments, etc.
