This is fine, but not in the below case.

Depending on multi-argument shebang is IMO bad. In shebang generally
(but not in all systems) everything after interpreter part is treated
as the first argument. Therefore executing your gen-insn-attr-x86.awk
is equivalent to:

/usr/bin/env 'awk -f' gen-insn-attr-x86.awk

which is obviously wrong.
