So, apparently the perl portgroup replaces shebang

I can't find any code in the perl5 portgroup that replaces shebang lines. But
if you need to do that, it's easy to write an fs-traverse/reinplace loop to do
so. Many other ports do something like that, so you can probably find a few
lines of code in another portfile that you can copy and paste.
Interesting! It took a bit to recover (some of) my mac- and macports-fu
to set up a local portfile (and avoid all the clever caching of portfiles,
tarballs, etc :> )
And verified that with a normal #!/usr/bin/perl it *does* get replaced by
perl-5.26.
And, I tracked down the source of the Perl5 portgroup and also saw no
clue of where that could be happening....
So, I tracked it down to the Makefile that perl's MakeMaker generates;
an innocuous thing called "fixin" does that substitution.
Of course, I don't want it to do the replacement, in general,
except in macports.
So, I guess the ball's back in my court! :>
But thanks for the clues; they helped a lot!!
