Hello , it works for me.
 I remember some difficulties with quote escaping. That's while  I'm using $$ quoting for the sql aguments.

here is how ma commands look like:

psqlexec="psql -h$pghost -p$pgport -U$pguser -d${pgdb} -1 -P  format=u -tqX";

$psqlexec -c "SELECT relname FROM pg_class WHERE ..." \
| xargs -n 1 -P 8 -I{} bash -c "$psqlexec -c 'select * from foo(\$\${}\$\$)' > ouputdir/{}.out"

HTH,

Marc Mamin
