_______________________________________________________
Details:
An example in find.info says
'-perm /022'
Match files that are writable by either their owner or their
group. The files don't have to be writable by both the owner
and group to be matched; either will do.
I think this is wrong; to match the text, I think the option would have to be
'-perm /220'. Other examples nearby are similar. Patch attached.
