8. emacs -Q started from desktop with gnuwin put as the first element
of PATH globally:

(getenv "PATH")
"c:\\gnu\\gnuwin32\\bin;C:\\WINDOWS\\system32;C:\\WINDOWS;C:\\WINDOWS\\System32\\Wbem;C:\\gnu\\clisp-2.49;C:\\Program
Files\\TortoiseSVN\\bin;c:\\gnu\\cygwin\\bin;d:\\bin;C:\\Program Files
(x86)\\TortoiseHg\\;C:\\Program Files
(x86)\\Bazaar;C:\\gnu\\GnuTLS-2.10.1\\bin"

find . "(" -path "*/SCCS" -o -path "*/RCS"...-o -name "*.pyo" ")"
-prune -o  -type f "(" -iname "*" -o -iname ".*" ")" -print0 | xargs
-0 -e grep -i -nH "asdf"
xargs: grep: No such file or directory
./src/clisp/current/src/ChangeLog:29:	* modules/asdf/asdf.lisp: update
to upstream "2.011"
./src/clisp/current/src/ChangeLog:512:	bundle ASDF2 as a module
./src/clisp/current/src/ChangeLog:513:	* Makefile.devel (update-asdf):
new .PHONY target
./src/clisp/current/src/ChangeLog:515:	* modules/asdf: add (based on asdf 2.008)
./src/clisp/current/src/ChangeLog:516:	* makemake.in, unix/INSTALL:
mention asdf in the docs
./src/clisp/current/src/ChangeLog:590:	(require): use the above, now
one can hook asdf into clisp
grep: ./src/clisp/c: No such file or directory
find: write error: Invalid argument

sort of works, except these bugs in output:
1. "xargs: grep: No such file or directory"
2. "grep: ./src/clisp/c: No such file or directory"
3. "find: write error: Invalid argument"

9. same as above but without "-Q":
find . \( -path  -o -path \*/attic ...-o  -type f \( -iname
\*.\[cdfh\] -o -iname \*.lisp -o -iname \*.tst -o -iname \*.m4 -o
-iname \*.in -o -iname Makefile\* -o -iname \*.xml \) -print0 | xargs
-0 -e grep -i -nH asdf
find: paths must precede expression
Usage: find [-H] [-L] [-P] [path...] [expression]
