Hi everybody!
     Use /usr/bin/env python2? Does every python 2.x installation really 
contain a python2 executable?
     OSX 10.12 Sierra has python 2.7 but does not have a python2 executable.  
Only python.

At least this is the case on my machine.

Gosh, didn't expect that.

In that case, I'd vote for leaving python shebangs as they are.

Arch is clearly not following (one of) the recommendation in the PEP, that python 
"should" deliver python2. So it's Arch's fault, and their (packagers/users') 
responsibility to take appropriate action.

Again, something to document ;-)

Gub itself does not provide a python2.

I think with the attached test-patch on top of the patch I already sent to you 
'make lilypond' (not only bin/gub xxx::lilypond) should succeed after you put 
the newly created wrapper directory in front of PATH.

Knut
