Actually, it sometimes doesn't work without the space. Some Unices still 
read the first four bytes entirely, and it matches a proprietary (Unisys 
I think) binary file format. I'll change it back anyways, because in 
principle our scripts are meant to run on popular non-legacy platforms 
(which correctly compare the first two bytes to '#!'.)

The paths are relative, and it seems to me that the script could use 
$srcdir to make a more flexible Makefile.

The script couldn't rebuild the openpkg instance on any of our three 
reference machines, however. It breaks at this point every time. I will 
look into it more and give better details. I hope it is an environment 
problem.

Regards,
Michael
