That definitely doesn't work - if anything, you pipe find into the
while, not the other way around. `foo < <(...)` is equivalent to `...
| foo`, except without creating another shell. It's Bash process
substitution, see <http://mywiki.wooledge.org/ProcessSubstitution/>.
Which script are you getting the error from? That generally means
something is claiming to be a sh script when it's actually bash, and
your /bin/sh is dash or true Bourne shell. It could also be a pre-3.1
Bash. I thought we'd weeded out all the pretend sh scripts by now.
