Ummm...  isn't the pathname problem delt with in find with the '-print0'
option and in xargs its '-0' option??

% touch 'test file'
% find test* -print | xargs ls -l
ls: file: No such file or directory
ls: test: No such file or directory

...  as expected ...


% find test* -print0 | xargs -0 ls -l
-rw-rw-r--  1 brad  wheel  0 Jan 11 20:35 test file
