ls | xargs

Hello,

Starting with the 2013 snapshots, the following no longer work:

% /usr/bin/ls | /usr/bin/xargs /usr/bin/echo

Instead of giving basically the same output as plain ls, the
command does not finish and xargs remains in <defunct> state.

The snapshot 20121231 was ok.

Regards,

Denis Excoffier.
