I'd use the print builtin of zsh, so that there are no argv length
limitations, combined with zsh's very powerful glob operators.

  print -N **/*.c(mM-1) | xargs -0 ...

The `print -N` uses NUL characters between arguments, for compatibility
with `xargs -0`, and the example glob finds all .c files anywhere under
the current directory which were modified in the past month.
