Hi,
xargs seems to be broken right now...
could someone reproduce the following sequence ?
# uname -a
FreeBSD gits 4.6-STABLE FreeBSD 4.6-STABLE #15: Sun Jun 23 06:31:23 CEST 2002 root@gits:/disk2/freebsd/src/sys/compile/CUSTOM i386

# cd /home/ncvs
# find ports -type d | grep -v Attic | sort -u > /tmp/p
# cd /usr
# xargs ls -d < /tmp/p
xargs: ls: Argument list too long
# gxargs ls -d < /tmp/p
(using gnu xargs from findutils port)
ports
ports/Mk
ports/Templates
ports/Tools
