Probably not.  You don't want to blindly convert every file under the 
start location -- what if you have actual binaries?  Or you only want to 
convert foo/CVS/* and foo/bar/CVS/*, but not foo/* or foo/bar/* ?

Using 'find' to create a filelist, and piping the result to 'xargs 
dos2unix' is the right answer, here.
