            Bug ID: 15371
           Summary: env in shebang won't accept more than 1 parameter
           Product: Busybox
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5
         Component: Other
          Assignee: unassigned at busybox.net

  Target Milestone: ---

Busybox v1.36.0

When script interpreter path is unknown, it is common to use env as a
"preloader" in the shebang:

#!/bin/env -S <interpreter_without_path> <parameters>

Busybox env does not support -S parameter. Without -S, tries to execute
[interpreter and it's parameters] as a single filename.
Example:

Script starts with "#!/bin/env awk -f":

execve("/usr/sbin/awk -f", ["awk -f", "/bin/ipcalc.sh"], 0xbe806d84 /* 16 vars
*/) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
execve("/usr/bin/awk -f", ["awk -f", "/bin/ipcalc.sh"], 0xbe806d84 /* 16 vars
*/) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
execve("/sbin/awk -f", ["awk -f", "/bin/ipcalc.sh"], 0xbe806d84 /* 16 vars */)
= -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
execve("/bin/awk -f", ["awk -f", "/bin/ipcalc.sh"], 0xbe806d84 /* 16 vars */) =
-1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

Please add -S parameter to env.
Thank you.
