There is already a hook for doing that that in the kernel; no patching
is required.

See the system calls link(2) and symlink(2). The (Essential) coreutils
package provides a userspace binary /bin/ln which makes these calls
available to shell scripts.

That's great. Could you tell me how to use those so that script A uses
python 2.3 and script B uses python 2.4 without modifying the scripts?
