Component: - General → System/libroot.so
Owner: changed from nobody to axeld
Version: R1/alpha2 → R1/Development

We could even build it into our runtime loader, or unistd/exec.cpp; it should only do so if /usr/bin/env does not exist, though.

Just a note. This was also briefly discussed on the HaikuPorts mailing list several months ago. I think unfortunately we'll need some kind of 'magic' to handle this as changing upstream software will be difficult.
