Tru64 v5.1B pk3 find won't follow symbolic links

The -follow switch does not work for the version of find in Tru64 v5.1B pk3

e.g.
# find /var/adm/syslog.dated/current -follow -name auth.log
find: Invalid path

The workaround is trivial:
# find /var/adm/syslog.dated/current/ -name auth.log
/var/adm/syslog.dated/current/auth.log

This problem is still there in the post-pk3 patch version of find, which fixes
the problem with large numbers of files.
