Yes, perl has a similar method. The following is from the "Programming
Perl" book:
#!/bin/sh -- #perl, to stop looping
eval 'exec /usr/bin/perl -S $0 ${1+"$@"}'
if 0;
.. rest of perl script ...
It's strange but it seems to work for me. In this case you simply
substitute maybe $GRASS_PERL for /usr/bin/perl.

substitute maybe $GRASS_PERL for /usr/bin/perl.
s@/usr/bin/perl@perl@ in the above "eval 'exec ...'", then it shouldn't
matter where perl lives as long as it's in $PATH. Some other techniques
are in "man perlrun". One other, which may not always exist:
#! /usr/bin/env perl

Looks funny! However, the "--" is not supported here:
g.html2man
sh: -- #perl, to stop looping: unrecognized option
Usage: sh [GNU long option] [option] ...
sh [GNU long option] [option] script-file ...
This is strange. -- is definitely a valid option for sh on Linux. You
can try it on the command line. In fact, I could not use *any* option
after #! /bin/sh, strange. So, I checked the perl newsgroup archive and
there was a post similar to this and the reply was that it was probably
a bug in the GNU sh. However, I found a workaround. Simply call
g.html2man with sh. That is:
sh g.html2man.
This should work, at least my test cases worked here on both Linux and
SGI.
And also not the -S:
export GRASS_PERL=/usr/bin/perl
g.html2man
/bin/sh: -S: unrecognized option
Shall I simply remove these flags?
The -S option is an option to perl, not sh, so please do not remove it.

Yes, now it's o.k.

Accepted now
Final question: How can we set
GRASS_PERL (from src/CMD/head/head.$ARCH)? I just get no idea,
Yours

We can handle it just like we do GISBASE in src/general/grass.src. That
is, we put something like
GRASS_PERL=PERL_COMMAND
in grass.src and then add the appropriate substitution to the sed
command in the Gmakefile. Do you want me to make the change, or wait on
it?

Done and it seems to substitute fine for me.

I have updated html/Gmakefile and
src/scripts/contrib/g.html2man/g.html2man
but it seems that GRASS_PERL is not sent to g.html2man. Do I have
to add it as parameter in above html/Gmakefile?

unfortunately I don't get g.html2man working properly. It seems not
to recognize the parameters given in html/Gmakefile
If anyone could look into this...
Thanks!

Fixed. The environment variable is defined in make.mid, but it was not
being passed to the html2man script. Please let me know of any other
problems.
