Re: findutils POSIX incompatiblity with "find . -perm ++w -print"

[Paul Eggert]

I did notice one minor inefficiency in the patch
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-findutils/2005-05/msg00426.html>.
that I submitted yesterday.  This code:

   if (argv[*arg_ptr][0] == '+' && (change = mode_compile (argv[*arg_ptr])))
     ...

can be replaced by:

   change = mode_compile (argv[*arg_ptr]);
   if (change)
     ...

since argv[*arg_ptr][0] is already known to be '+' at that point.
Sorry about the infelicity.  If you like, I can compose a new proposed
patch reflecting this change.
