RE: Bug in find 4.1

[Colin Coe]

Addendum:

OS: AIX 4.3.3.0 RML 09
Hardware: IBM RS/6000 model 7044-270 and model 7017-S80
Compiler: gcc 2.95.2

We presume that '_LARGE_FILES' needs to be '#define'd but do not know where,
or if this is even the right thing to do.

Despite the error, the command continues and processes the rest of the
files/directories quite happily.

TIA
