 <tt>find srctree -follow -name '*.c'</tt>.
 The Linux manual pages say that <tt>-follow</tt> is deprecated;
 it would be easier to take this seriously if <tt>-L</tt> were portable.
+<p>
+The BusyBox version of <tt>find</tt> doesn't allow <tt>exec</tt>.
+Workaround:
+replace, e.g.,
+<tt>find top -type f -exec inspect '{}' ';'</tt>
+with
+<tt>find top -type f -print0 | xargs -n1 -0 inspect</tt>.
+But, oops, the BusyBox version of <tt>xargs</tt> doesn't allow <tt>-0</tt>.
+Sigh.
