Maybe, but the bug is there. The command looks ok to me:

  find . "(" -path "*/CVS" -o -path "*/.svn" -o -path "*/{arch}" -o 
-path "*/.hg" -o -path "*/_darcs" -o -path "*/.git" -o -path "*/.bzr" 
")" -prune -o  -type f "(" -name "*.el" ")" -print0 | xargs -0 -e grep 
-i -nH -e "free software"

This problem together with the problem with "find.exe" path makes me 
think that it is better to use grep -r on w32.
