For Perl, the Camel book has something like this:

| eval '(exit $?0)' && eval 'exec perl -S $0 ${1+"$@"}' && eval 'exec perl -S $0 $
| argv:q'
| 	  if 0;
| 
| # The above lines allows us to find perl along $PATH rather than
| # guessing a fixed location. The above construction should work
| # with most shells.

Should also work with awk after a little tweaking.

Cheers,
  Colin
