Details:

address@hidden:~$ find /tmp/find-4.1.20-6 -print -nowarn
find: warning: you have specified the -nowarn option after a non-option
argument -print, but options are not positional (-nowarn affects tests
specified before it as well as those specified after it).  Please specify
options before other arguments.

It seems to be strange that -nowarn can trigger the warning, I tend to agree
with the original submitter: "my suggested fix is to allow -nowarn anywhere
on the command line."
