On FreeBSD, "find" does not support the "printf" flag, so we need to
use "gfind" from the "findutils" package.

It is one more dependency.
Shouldn't we avoid it by rewritting the shell commands with loops?

Probably in the longer term, yes. If I get the chance, I'll try and rewrite
this script, but let's keep this patch in the queue in case I don't get to
in the 21.11 timeframe.

OK
I can help with the shell tricks if needed.

Well, I was actually considering a rewrite in python for two reasons:
* easy FS scans using the "walk()" function
* portability across OS's [which is the main reason for the work after all]
