If -ignore_readdir_race is present, [ENOENT] errors caused by deleting a
file after find has read its name from a directory are ignored.
Formerly, -ignore_readdir_race did nothing.

As of FreeBSD 6, devices can only be opened through devfs. These device
nodes don't have major and minor numbers anymore. The st_rdev field in
struct stat is simply based a copy of st_ino.
Simply display device numbers as hexadecimal, using "%#jx". This is
allowed by POSIX, since it explicitly states things like the following
(example taken from ls(1)):
"If the file is a character special or block special file, the
size of the file may be replaced with implementation-defined
information associated with the device in question."
This makes the output of these commands more compact. For example, ls(1)
now uses approximately four columns less. While there, simplify the
column length calculation from ls(1) by calling snprintf() with a NULL
buffer.
Don't be afraid; if needed one can still obtain individual major/minor
numbers using stat(1).

Using 'sysctl vfs' is not only ugly, but is also not reliable - not all
file system types create entries in vfs sysctl tree.

It is a bit unfortunate that the example to delete broken symlinks now uses
rm(1), but allowing this with -delete would require fixing fts(3) to not
imply FTS_NOCHDIR if FTS_LOGICAL is given (or hacks in the -delete option).

in our find.
The following are nops because they aren't relevant to our find:
-ignore_readdir_race
-noignore_readdir_race
-noleaf
The following aliaes were created:
-gid -> -group [2]
-uid -> -user [2]
-wholename -> -path
-iwholename -> ipath
-mount -> -xdev
-d -> -depth [1]
The following new primaries were created:
-lname like -name, but matches symbolic links only)
-ilname like -lname but case insensitive
-quit exit(0)
-samefile returns true for hard links to the specified file
-true Always true
I changed one primary to match GNU find since I think our use of it violates
POLA
-false Always false (was an alias for -not!)
Also, document the '+' modifier for -execdir, as well as all of the above.
This was previously implemented.
Document the remaining 7 primaries that are in GNU find, but aren't yet
implemented in find(1)
[1] This was done in GNU find for compatibility with FreeBSD, yet they
mixed up command line args and primary args.
[2] -uid/-gid in GNU find ONLY takes a numeric arg, but that arg does the
normal range thing that. GNU find -user and -uid also take a numberic arg,
but don't do the range processing. find(1) does both for -user and -group,
so making -uid and -gid aliases is compatible for all non-error cases used
in GNU find. While not perfect emulation, this seems a reasonable thing
for us.

Move the HISTORY section to place it before BUGS rather than after BUGS,
