I think we went through that a day or two ago:  Problems:

1. You forgot symlinks.
2. It does not work if nothing matches "*".  (Nor does the original.)
3. Either it should not match dotfiles in subdirectories, or else it
should match
   them in the top directory too.
4. With needs some -print0 and "--" protection.
