Thanks for your report.
There is nothing else than a normal behavior here.
The man page says for option -L : "Use at most max-lines nonblank input lines
per command line."
This means that xargs reads max-lines from input then execute command then read
max-lines then execute command, etc...
Input items are delimited by blank or newlines. Hence, with 1 as
arguments it reads input lines one by one. That's what you get.
** Changed in: findutils (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Invalid
