`-L 1` has a different meaning, it doesn't take a line as an argument but as a list of whitespace separated arguments. So files with whitespaces will break. Using `-I{}` will break with newline in filenames, IMHO it's okay...

I changed the find line to only use `find` and it works with all files now, even the one with newlines.

Well now there is only one example with xargs, so each example is even more different than the others now.
