Details:

The find command doesn't like the users adm, news or gopher.
This is a Fedora 10 system w/kernel 2.6.27.7-134.fc10.i686

The command and it's return: 

find / -user adm -print
find: invalid argument `-print' to `-user'  

it thinks -print is an argument to -user and doesn't even see adm.

and without the -print option:

find / -user adm
find: missing argument to `-user'  

it still doesn't see adm.

Using " or ' around the user name doesn't help.
The same find command works with all of the other "users" i've tried.
