   Ah, another reason to install the Quality GNU Tools on my system.  Not.

Yes, and another problem I found within a day on the same netbsd-hp-m68k
machine is that GNU find doesn't print sizes correctly in `-ls'.
(It does work fine on a Linux machine.)

OTOH, since the bugs were discovered on a machine in the gnu.ai.mit.edu
domain, I think there's some hope they'll get fixed.

OTOH, I generally prefer GNU find, since I can do something like
`find -name foobar' and GNU find will do the equivalent of
`find . -name foobar -print'.

(I actually took the time to install GNU find in my account on a solaris
machine because of this...)
