System name:		gaston
Type and version:	SPARC/5 8.0K (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		cgthree

What were you trying to do?

gaston: /mit/maple]% find . -name foo -print
find: cannot open .: No such device

(-i help thinks it's dealing badly with the OldFiles link).

find * -name foo -print 
	works okay.

What's wrong:
	It shouldn't say it can't open .; . is readable.  (ick, using
	punctuation marks as nouns is sort of foolish looking)

What should have happened:
	It should have searched the paths it could read.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
