I use a variant:
find . -type f -name 'Root' | \
xargs perl -pi.bak -e 's/localhost/some.hostname/'
This tends to launch perl only once or twice, depending upon the
size of the tree, thanks to xargs.
I prefer using perl rather than a 'cp' because some of our modules
are nested and I don't trust the Root file to be identical all
through the tree. Maybe they are, maybe they aren't.
It also makes it easier to repair damage should some foolish programmer
have a file named 'Root' with other content.

No matter what we think of Linux versus FreeBSD, etc., the one thing I
really like about Linux is that it has Microsoft worried. Anything
that kicks a monopoly in the pants has got to be good for something.
