I don't think this is portable though.

Portability is not an issue. The beauty about this is that we can simply assume we have GNU tools and we do use Linux ... because that is what Arch is based on. I have no problem having GNU-specific features in there, as we can rely on GNU find (or GNU whatever) being present. The only exception is initramfs - however, no shell script is used in both the system and initramfs.
