[bug #38658] If the command exec() fails, xargs terminates prematurely

[Ivan Zahariev]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #38658 (project findutils):

This info isn't present in the Ubuntu man page. All I see there regarding this
matter is:

If any invocation of the command exits with a status of 255,
xargs will stop immediately without reading any further input.
An error message is issued on stderr when this happens.


Is this an Ubuntu/Debian bug in the man page?

Please also provide a URL link to the official POSIX web page/document that
you quoted.
