I was installing curl 7.32.0 today and ran across something I would like to ask 
about.  In the current BLFS book, as part of the make install, there is this 
line:

  find docs \( -name "Makefile*" -o -name "*.1" -o -name "*.3" \) -exec rm {} 
\; &&

Now in my old script file for curl 7.25.0 I have this line:

  find docs -name "Makefile*" -o -name "*.1" -o -name "*.3" | xargs rm &&

The lines appear functionally identical.  My question is does anyone know why 
the line was changed?  I'm thinking that it may have just been the preference 
of the editor who updated the version.  Or was there another reason?  Some 
nuance of the line that prompted the change?  I'm just curious...
