IEEE Std 1003.1, 2004:

The shell reads its input from a file (see sh), from the -c option or from the
system() and popen() functions defined in the System Interfaces volume of IEEE
Std 1003.1-2001. If the first line of a file of shell commands starts with the
characters "#!", the results are unspecified.
