I want to write a program that does check the appropriate system path

Why?
The path where I have it in FreeBSD is
#! /usr/local/bin/perl
Look for other links:
% which perl
/usr/bin/perl
% uname -smr
FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE i386
If you installed Perl from ports, /usr/bin/perl should be there.
I wanted the program to check for the uname of the system and choose
the appropriate path.
Not a good way to check, since it could be anywhere. which or whereis
would be better.
Can anyone tell me how can I have my program
check this.
chomp(my $perlpath = `which perl`);
print "path to perl is $perlpath\n";
