Unfortunately, this fix is not portable. The -r option is not supported by BSD nor POSIX xargs flavor. I already implemented a portable correction of that problem in dim-0-mv38, by ignoring empty files in the post-processing of the xargs command, in the function index_codepath(), called by do_sum(). Can you confirm that it work for you with dim-0-mv38 or later?
