Details:

find . -name test1 -or -name test2 -exec echo {} \;
and
find . -name test1 -or -name test2 -print
should produce output equal to
find . -name test1 -or -name test2
but the first 2 commands give the following output
./test2
the last command outputs properly with
./test1
./test2

However 
find -name "test*" -a -name "*[1-2]" -print
produces correct output but
find -name "test*" -a -name "*[1-2]" -exec echo {} \;
produces an extra /n before giving the correct output which just 
find -name "test[1-2]" --exec echo {} \;
doesn't produce. Maybe a separate bug.

I am using Ubuntu and "find --version" gives the following
find (GNU findutils) 4.4.2
...
Built using GNU gnulib version e5573b1bad88bfabcda181b9e0125fb0c52b7d3b
Features enabled: D_TYPE O_NOFOLLOW(enabled) LEAF_OPTIMISATION FTS()
CBO(level=0)

Bash Code to reproduce, it should produce the same output for all the find
commands without an blanklines:

touch test1 test2
find . -name test1 -or -name test2 -exec echo {} \;
find . -name test1 -or -name test2 -print
find -name "test*" -a -name "*[1-2]" -exec echo {} \;
find . -name test1 -or -name test2
