Hello!

Well also with absolute pathnames this won't work:

martin at shambala:/> find /home/martin/ -type 
d -and -name ".bzr" -printf "%h\n" | xargs -n1 -i{} echo bzr check \"{}\"
bzr check "/home/martin/Geburtstag 2007"
bzr check "/home/martin/.crm114"
bzr check "/home/martin/Computer/Mondschein/Konfiguration/etc"
bzr check "/home/martin/Linux/LUSC/WorkshopWeekend2006/Automatische 
[...]

martin at shambala:/> find /home/martin/ -type 
d -and -name ".bzr" -printf "%h\n" | xargs -n1 -i{} bzr check \"{}\"
bzr: ERROR: Not a branch: /"/home/martin/Geburtstag 2007"/
bzr: ERROR: Not a branch: /"/home/martin/.crm114"/
bzr: ERROR: Not a 
branch: /"/home/martin/Computer/Mondschein/Konfiguration/etc"/
bzr: ERROR: Not a 
branch: /"/home/martin/Linux/LUSC/WorkshopWeekend2006/Automatische 
Netzwerk-Konfiguration"/


But without quotes it will work... Well that seems broken to me ;-). At 
least it should work with properly quoted paths as well IMHO ;-)
