In porting our administration utilities to 3100/5810/Ultrix, we've
bumped into some missing 'find' options.  Some we will get by building
the BSD find, others I'd appreciate any advice on.

We want to add a -type for nfs mounted systems, like the Suns have.
Also a la Sun, we want a -prune option.  Can you guess why we need
these now that we have NFS?  :-(

We will implement the -nouser and -nogroup options ourselves, rolling
the BSD stuff into Ultrix.  Patches upon request.

Steve
