Can you state the precise command you used to produce this error message? Could you remove the whitespace again to see if the error returns? I've so far not been able to reproduce this problem. RH9 is one distro I test before a release. I wouldn't have expected a "no start line error" if the line was misinterpreted because it should give a file not found error instead.
