I'm not exactly sure what your question is, but POSIX already requires
'find' to default to breadth-first traversal (find visits all files in
the current directory before descending to a subdirectory) so that the
-prune predicate works; but if the -depth predicate is supplied, then
'find' executes in depth-first traversal (subdirectories are visited
before files in the parent directory).
