Many (but definatetly not all, and certainly not most) apps allow you to specify a different path to interpretors used by their scripts such that you could rebuild from spec file, with this tweak to the spec (i.e. specify where the interpreter is). That said, I don't know if the particular app provides a way to do this. If not you can patch the make file.
