Accessing the partition number of file arguments to xargs?

Hi all.

Is there a way to access the partition number of xargs' arguments on
the command line?

Example:
xargs -a argfile -n 10 -P 4 processor-program %I ...

%I should be iterating from 1 (or 0) to (number-of-files-in-argfile +
9 / 10).


If no such possibility exists, please read this as a Christmas
feature request :-)

Greetings
Sven
