 But a perl interpreter is not shipped with the kernel, is it? neither a
 posix shell or a python interpreter ...
 The scripts are already shipped with the kernel, the "interpreter" have
 to be installed in the dev machine like you have to install perl, make,
 gcc, etc
 
 just my two cents as a bystander :)
