Keywords: patch kern_execve.c #!
There is a patch for kern_execve.c (PATCH00024+PATCH00025) in the patchkit
which fixes the missing #!/bin/sh feature to execute shell scripts or whatever.
The current implementation of this feature is not completely correct. It fails
in cases where another argument has to be passed to the invoked program
like it is the case in TK/TCL's wish script which are invoked like
#!/usr/local/bin/wish -f
# the script follows.
#
#
The executed program should receive argv[0]="/usr/local/bin/wish",
argv[1]="-f" and argv[2]="<name-of-the-script>".
In fact the present version of kern_execve.c (with the above mentioned patches
applied) makes the invoked program to receive: argv[9]="/usr/local/bin/wish",
argv[1]="<name-of-the-script>", the switches or any parameters are missing.
The patch below fixes this - at least I hope so. Please excuse me for not
supplying the diffs to the original distribution.

The patch for param.h may not be necessary - one might leave the value for MAXINTERP at 32 avoiding to have to rebuild a lot of kernel modules. This would only require kern_execve.c be rebuilt and for a quick test this would suffice.
