I personally like Francisco Olarte's approach. Hashbang's don't support
arguments well (
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4303128/how-to-use-multiple-arguments-with-a-shebang-i-e)
and being able to put JUST psql as the command to execute the script
doesn't scale across environments. Previously I've just used a quick
wrapper:

https://gist.github.com/frankpinto/3427cf769a72ef25ffac

It can be modified to accept arguments for the script name, run a sql
script by the same name, have a default environment, etc.
