AFICT, the only reason they do that complicated shell double bounce is for
platform independence, for the few platforms that don't support "#!" scripts
and so they can put wrappers around Scheme scripts for DOS & friends.
If you know that your system supports "#!", MzScheme works perfectly
well with this simpler template, which I use all the time:

    #!/usr/local/bin/mzscheme -r
    (vector-ref argv 0)

[where "/usr/local/bin/mzscheme" is a copy of the *actual* binary, not
their runtime architecture-dispatching script.]

Note however, that in this case the first arg will be in the
*zero*-th element of variable "argv", and that there will be no
easy way to get at the script name itself (the global variable
"program" will contain "/usr/local/bin/mzscheme").
