How does the change below correspond to this comment?  It's not
clear [at least to me] how changing that environment variable
affects shebang constructs.  Can you give a more thorough explanation?

The scripts intltool-{update,etc} installed in sysroot end up having
*really* long shebangs without this change. On older distros this
causes the intltool scripts to just fail usually during the configure
task. intltools recipe itself will
build and install fine. However, when a package that requires
intltool's is being configured they will all fail withing invoking
intltools.

This much was already clear from your explanation - the "what happens and
why it needs fixing" part.

What I don't see is the "why" - why does defining PERL vs PERL_virtclass-native
have this effect?
