It does not solve the problem.  Firstly, it can't be done from the
#! line at all, so the script can't do it early enough.  It only works
if it's already been set by the user, which is no good for what should
be an internal detail of the program.  Secondly, it suffers the second
problem that I noted with --no-auto-compile: if there's already a cached
compilation then that'll be looked at, and if it's out of date then a
"newer than" banner is emitted.  With the environment variable set the
cached version will never be updated, nor will it be deleted, so the
banner then appears on every execution.
