/usr/bin/perl^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

I'm sure that this has been covered many times but I still can't get an answer to why I'm getting this error. I know all about the UNIX/Windows CRLF problem but it's not that.
One of our interns keep getting the error even though he said it worked before. If I just run the script on his system (OS X 10.6.6) I get the error. If I copy it to my system (same as his) and run it I don't get an error.
Perl is where the script is looking on both systems. I even used vi to retype(it's small) the script in again to make sure there were no hidden characters.
I then read that putting "--" on the line would flag the end of the CLI option list to the script/executable.
#!/usr/bin/perl --
and that worked? Can anyone tell me where the script is picking up the "^M"?
None of this code has been developed on a Windows system.
Thanks.
Pat.
