The answer to the question is "no" - it's neither standard, nor is it a
SunOSism.  It's a BSDism (which was folded into the S5-based "find"s in
later SunOS releases).  If you don't have it, you may have "xargs",
which can bundle up the output of "find" and run one "ls" command for
every N files, not just for every file.

Or, to quote (at least some versions of) the man page:
