cloc: hashbang header has "perl" twice

[Eyal Rozenberg]

I'm not sure how bug reporting "etiquette" works here on the list, but -
I was sort of expecting an acknowledgement. Or - was I wrong to post my
bug report here in the first place?

I have another bug (two actually) to report regarding meld, and I want
to get that report right and not have it lost in the noise.
