this does the trick for me:

[rvegmond@wednesday ~]$ cat test.sh
#!/bin/bash
echo "1=$1"
echo "2=$2"
[rvegmond@wednesday ~]$ ./test.sh '' 'This is a second argument'
1=
2=This is a second argument

hope this helps..

NAME
Test::Valgrind::Command::PerlScript - A Test::Valgrind command that invokes a perl script. VERSION
Version 1.13 DESCRIPTION
This command is meant to abstract the argument list handling of a "perl" script. METHODS
This class inherits Test::Valgrind::Command::Perl. "new file => $file, [ taint_mode => $taint_mode ], ..." The package constructor, which takes several options : o $file is the path to the "perl" script you want to run. This option is mandatory. o $taint_mode is actually handled by the parent class Test::Valgrind::Command::Perl, but it gets special handling in this subclass : if "undef" is passed (which is the default), the constructor will try to infer its right value from the shebang line of the script. Other arguments are passed straight to "Test::Valgrind::Command::Perl->new". "file" Read-only accessor for the "file" option. SEE ALSO
