This is a bug report for perl from brucer@iceage.cisco.com,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.35 running under perl v5.8.6.

perlrun incantation:

#!/bin/sh -- # -*- perl -*- -p
eval 'exec perl -wS $0 ${1+"$@"}'
if $running_under_some_shell;

does not work

What does work is:

#!/bin/sh
#! -*- perl -*-
eval 'exec perl -x -wS $0 ${1+"$@"}'
 if 0;

This works on both solaris2.8 (ours anyway) and linux

thanks,
Bruce
