What about the -print0 option and xargs(1)? Is it as portable as
the above construction? Since this would result in less load
(*much* less exec'ed processes). The "The xargs utility is
expected to be IEEE Std 1003.2 (``POSIX.2'') compliant." part of
`man xargs` gives me hope ...
find /tmp -name 'krb5cc_*' -ctime +1 -print0 | xargs -0 rm -f
