    _______________________________________________________

Details:

I've finished with the xargs for now.
While my aim was to create comprehensive testsuite for xargs, I could miss
something.

As of findutils-4.2.15, following tests are expected to fail:

FAIL: idef-s26-0, wrong stdout output: cmp: EOF on xargs.out
FAIL: n2-s26-x-0, wrong stdout output: cmp: EOF on xargs.out
FAIL: s19-0, wrong stdout output: cmp: EOF on xargs.out
FAIL: n2-s26-x, wrong stdout output: cmp: EOF on xargs.out
FAIL: s19, wrong stdout output: cmp: EOF on xargs.out
FAIL: unmatched, wrong stdout output: cmp: EOF on xargs.out
FAIL: unmatched2, unexpected success
FAIL: idef-s26, wrong stdout output: cmp: EOF on xargs.out

The unmatched2 test fails because of unimplemented check in xargs,
"FIXME we don't check for unterminated quotes here."

Other tests fail because of xargs behaviour when it detects error:
in this case, xargs doesn't attempt to wait for already forked child
processes, and doesn't execute already buffered input even when such
execution is possible (-x is not specified, etc.).
