I don't know about version of find in 5.3, but for find in 5.2,
-depth option has no arguments. From man:
-depth Always true; same as the -d option. -depth can be useful when
find is used with cpio(1) to process files that are contained in
directories with unusual permissions. It ensures that you have
write permission while you are placing files in a directory,
then sets the directory's permissions as the last thing.
