It adds a few options from SUSv3 (some possibly older), and fixes xargs returning the incorrect values on error. It also compiles with BDECFLAGS and -Werror (last I tried). The patch is available here: http://people.freebsd.org/~jmallett/xargs.patch Relative to -rHEAD right now. In detail, it adds: -E, -I, -L, -t; As far as flags go. I'm looking to commit this after the weekend, so review would be appreciated, comments and flames welcome... Three days sound good? Thanks much, /j.
