AFAIK, the shebang line is ignored on Windows and Macintosh systems, maybe not on MacOS X systems.
Security should not be obtained by hiding the location of perl.exe. This is not the reason. There are some "standard" locations, i. e. some locations are widely used. User friendly configured web servers have links to perl.exe in some of these "standard" locations so that there is a great chance that the script will work even if the shebang line is not adapted. To get a script to work, however, one has at least to chmod the file on *nix systems. Often additional changes have to be made. Therefore, I consider it not too important to have a shebang line that has not to be touched when the script is ported. Do you have a special need for a portable shebang line?
