This item is tagged for TC1-2024

At page 3600 line 123176 section xargs, change:
    If the standard input is not empty and does not end with a null
    byte, xargs should ignore the trailing non-null bytes (as this
    can signal incomplete data) but may use them as the last argument
    passed to utility.
to:
    If the standard input is not empty and does not end with a null
    byte, xargs should treat the trailing non-null bytes (which can
    signal incomplete data) as an error but may use them as the
    last argument passed to utility.

Add to RATIONALE after page 3605 line 123412:
    When the -0 option is not specified, if the standard input is
    not empty and does not end with a <newline>, then the input is
    not a text file, and therefore the behavior is undefined.
    However, it is recommended that xargs diagnoses the trailing
    non-<newline> characters (for consistency with the recommendation
    for -0 and trailing non-null bytes).

On page 3606 line 123415 section xargs, change:
    xargs ignores the trailing non-null bytes.
to:
    xargs treats the trailing non-null bytes as an error.
