Summary: Inconsistent display of warningmessage about options and non-options
Original Submission: Recent releases of find display a warning message if
overall options like -maxdepth appear in the middle of the expression, however
displaying this warning is inconsistent:
downhill:/etc# find . -xdev -depth -type f -print > /dev/null
find: warning: you have specified the -depth option after a non-option argument
-xdev, but options are not positional (-depth affects tests specified before it
as well as those specified after it). Please specify options before other
arguments.
# but -depth *is* a non-option.
downhill:/etc# find . -type f -depth -print > /dev/null
find: warning: you have specified the -depth option after a non-option argument
-type, but options are not positional (-depth affects tests specified before it
as well as those specified after it). Please specify options before other
arguments.
#switching the nooptions works:
downhill:/etc# find . -depth -xdev -type f -print > /dev/null

Actually the problem is -xdev, which is not recognized as global option, this
might be enough:
-{ARG_TEST, "xdev", parse_xdev}
+{ARG_OPTION, "xdev", parse_xdev}
