Huh?  find -xdev is specified by POSIX, so it's portable:

http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/find.html

-xdev
    The primary shall always evaluate as true; it shall cause find not
to continue descending past directories that have a different device ID
(st_dev, see the stat() function defined in the System Interfaces volume
of POSIX.1-2008). If any -xdev primary is specified, it shall apply to
the entire expression even if the -xdev primary would not normally be
evaluated.
