Follow-up Comment #2, bug #13495 (project findutils):

I like the patch, but would prefer to switch back to RE_SYNTAX_EMACS as
default, which is *afaict* what find up to 4.2.20 used.

I've thought a little bit about this and have realized that breaking backwards
compability could be _very_ painful. (Breaking lots of scripts in non-obvious
ways, e.g  http://bugs.debian.org/315136)

thanks, cu andreas
