    Problem Text
    This test may fail on systems where the default directory size is 1024 or
    greater.

    Assertion #72 (A): Option -size n

    The specification IEEE Std POSIX 1003.2 (page 282, lines 4346-4348) says,

    -size n[c] The primary shall evaluate as true if the file size
    in bytes, divided by 512 and rounded upto the next
    integer is n. If n is followed by the character is
    'c', the size shall be in bytes.

    This primary may be even true for the directory 'df072.tmp', if the
    default size for a directory is >= (2*512). But the test is expecting
    only the file 'df072.tmp/f2' as a result.

    Since the default size for a directory is system dependent, find(1)
    will only search for the normal file(-type f) for the correct result.

    So in the test suite(tp72), the line

    find df072.tmp -size 2 -print > $CT_STDOUT 2> $CT_STDERR

    should be changed to

    find df072.tmp -size 2 -type f -print > $CT_STDOUT 2> $CT_STDERR

    Test Output
    tset/POSIX.cmd/find/find.ex 1 Failed

    Assertion #72 (A): Option -size n
    Standard output isn't the same as file 'find0722.exp'
