fixed in 4.3.x

This problem is fixed in the CVS code for findutils.
To resolve your problem, you could either wait for the
next official release of findutils, or check out a copy
of the code from the CVS repository for findutils.

Hello,
There are at least two) typos in find.1:

ametzler@argenau$ man findutils-4.3.5/find/find.1 > dev/null
Reformatting find.1, please wait...
`R' is a string (producing the registered sign), not a macro.
`R' is a string (producing the registered sign), not a macro.

This is caused by
.R \-L
and
.R -P

which probably should be .BRs (and the dash should be escaped). Simple patch attached.

thanks, cu andreas
