I think xargs is behaving in the way the POSIX standard requries. If you don't think that is the case, please be more specific about what it is doing wrong (see http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/).

Otherwise, you could just wrap the affected program in a shell script which changes the return value.

James.
