+Hi all,
+
+I've encountered a bug in find2perl when used with the -prune Option.
+As there have been some bugreports recently, *and* also because there
+has to be fixed an incompatibility with perl5, I don't try to offer a
+fix, sorry. The bug comes and goes like this (verified for SUN and
+NeXT):
+
+%/usr/bin/find foo -print
+foo
+foo/bar
+foo/bar/baz
+%/usr/bin/find foo -prune -print
+foo
+%perl /usr/local/bin/find2perl foo -prune -print | perl
+foo
+foo/bar
+%perl5a5 /usr/local/bin/find2perl foo -prune -print | perl5a5
+Final $ should be \$ or $name at /usr/local/bin/find2perl line 553, at end of string
+syntax error at /usr/local/bin/find2perl line 553, near ""^$tmp$""
+Execution of /usr/local/bin/find2perl aborted due to compilation errors.
