Sounds good.  I'll do this.

Just in case anyone is interested, the following is going to be the
basic form of the patch; if there are any suggestions, make 'em now :-)


if [ -f /proc/apm ]; then
  if [ "`cat /proc/apm | (read a b c d e; echo $e)`" != "0x00" ]; then
    exit 0  # or do everything but the find
  fi
fi
# Do everything, including the find
