as of rev. 469, the custom $PATH var I export from ~/.bash_profile does not show up in a command *if* the command has a shebang. I don't know if this is intended behavior

It is at least well-known, and happens because the shebang will cause the system to run the interpreter command directly, and not through the shell. And it's the shell that grabs those variables from your profiles (by sourcing them into the running environment before the command is run). #!/bin/bash might/should work, but of course it might as well be left out in that case :-p.

For other interpreters, start it manually instead, for now (and don't use shebang).
