Cgi modules

I have php compiled as both a module and cgi on my server... Running php from the command line works just fine, no unexpected output.. However running it as cgi from the webserver is really wierd... The very first line #!/usr/bin/local/php ALWAYS shows up on the webpage... Its driving me nuts.. This line is supposed to be parsed out or what ever, although im not sure if php or apache does it... Normal perl cgis work fine and don't have this extra line.. The funny thing is even though something is clearly going wrong the servers work...
