>Description:

When I call grep-find (or other functions using find... | xargs ...)
xemacs substitute invalid command line:

"find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 -e grep -n search..."

FreeBSD does bot handle -e xargs key, run failed.

invistegation problem:
$ find /usr/local/lib/xemacs* -name '*.el' | xargs fgrep -- '-0 -e'
/usr/local/lib/xemacs/xemacs-packages/lisp/igrep/igrep.el:      ind ... -print0 | xargs -0 -e grep ...;
/usr/local/lib/xemacs/xemacs-packages/lisp/igrep/igrep.el:                 "%s %s %s %s %s -print0 | xargs -0 -e %s")
/usr/local/lib/xemacs/xemacs-packages/lisp/xemacs-base/compile.el:       (format "find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 -e %s" grep-comm and))
/usr/local/lib/xemacs/xemacs-packages/lisp/xemacs-base/compile.el:         (format "find . %s %s -type f -print0 | xargs -0 -e %s"
/usr/local/lib/xemacs-21.5-b16/etc/sample.init.el:         (format "find . %s %s -type f -print0 | xargs -0 -e %s"
$

>How-To-Repeat:

Just run xemacs and try something grep-find "M-x grep-find"

>Fix:
Workaround, but not fix, as root:

FILES=`find /usr/local/lib/xemacs* -name '*.el'` 
perl -pi -e 's/xargs -0 -e/xargs -0/g' $FILES
xemacs -batch -f batch-byte-compile $FILES
