[File] /usr/bin and /bin

Hello,
I was wondering something. There are distributions that have /bin and /sbin
symlinked to /usr/bin and /usr/sbin respectively. Because files could be in
either place, there are tests like:
#!\ /bin/bash
#!\ /usr/bin/bash
#!\ /usr/local/bash
#!\ /usr/local/bin/bash
and the same would apply to any other script with a shebang. Could this be
solved programmatically rather than having to do this throughout the magic db
for every script? I'm thinking this could make the magic db smaller and lower
the maintenance associated.
Best Regards,
-Steve
