The official Perl should be in /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin, and that's

Don't we already provide a knob? The Makefile has:

  $(patsubst %.perl,%,$(SCRIPT_PERL)): % : %.perl
  [...]
          sed -e '1{' \
              -e '        s|#!.*perl|#!$(PERL_PATH_SQ)|' \
  [...]

So just setting PERL_PATH should be enough (from which PERL_PATH_SQ is
derived).
