find update

Hi Attached is a very small but useful patch to `find`
which gives an extra format parameter (%D) to -printf.
This outputs the device number which when used in con-
junction with %i (inode number), uniquely identifies
any file on the system. This is useful for a large range
of problems in my opinion.

To apply the patch:

1. copy the find_patch.tgz file to the find source dir 
   (the directory containing pred.c & parser.c).
2. tar -xzf find_patch.tgz
3. patch parser.c parser.diff
   patch parser.c parser.diff

If you want the patch in a different format or 
whatever, please tell me.

Cheers,
Padraig (address@hidden)
