Subject:	Patches for GNU Find under v2
Message-Id:	<Pine.SUN.3.91.960226192054.7845A-100000@is>
Mime-Version:	1.0

GNU Find 4.1 as distributed with find41b.zip has 3 bugs:

	1) It doesn't map correctly the exit status of child programs 
(run with -exec) to the true/false values; thus it sometimes will process 
files it shouldn't have.

	2) It fails to restore the current directory after running a 
child process; thus it will complain about nonexistent files when 
recursively descenting a directory.

	3) It doesn't know about any filesystem type except ``unknown''.

The following simple patches take care of all of the above.  You should 
run configur.bat file after applying these patches, before invoking Make.
