On Gentoo, env is in /bin and /usr/bin

/usr/bin/env is present on every unix system I've ever been on (I kind of
make it a habit to check) and probably a ton I've never used ;)

However using env really only makes sense in the

#!/usr/bin/env foo

case.  Pretty much every other case you should be setting PATH to
something proper in your script.
