Specifying the same file for output multiple times in find will overwrite the file by default. #439
Description
refer: #421 (comment)
For future reference: GNU find de-duplicates files, so if you do find -fprint foo -fprint foo it will use the same FILE * for both and you'll get each line twice. Right now uutils will use two different Files and the writes will overlap with each other.

Hello!
Is someone working on it? I would like to give it a try, if not.
Thanks.
