My testing indicates:
The first line which specifies the interpreter and interpreter args is limited
in length:
- max. 253 characters on Linux
- max. 513 characters on macOS
- max. 1025 characters on NetBSD
- max. 125 characters on OpenBSD
- max. 1022 characters on AIX
- max. 1021 characters on Solaris
On Linux and AIX, characters exceeding this limit are simply cut off by the
system.
On macOS, NetBSD, OpenBSD, and Solaris, the script is not executed at all if
this line is too long.
