In the course of working on http://trac.parrot.org/parrot/ticket/1715, I
noticed that some Perl 5 programs in tools/dev/ are executable, i.e.,
have 0755 permissions, whereas the others are not executable (0644).
Most (all?) of these programs get installed in
lib/parrot/{version}-devel/tools/dev/, retaining their permissions.
I wondered whether we ought to be installing executables. Coke opined
that we could make them all executable and set their shebang lines to
"#!env perl, or something equally vanilla." I suspect other Parrot devs
may have ideas on this.
Suggestions? Thank you very much.
