Actually, I got it:  For some reason, the find command itself finds "file-io.c" 
in its results, but when I do "-exec" then it only results in '*.h' files 
printing out.  I'm reasonably certain that's a bug in the 'find' utility.

Edwards-MacBook-Pro:mono eharvey$ find . -name '*.cs' -or -name '*.c' -or -name 
'*.h' | grep file-io.c
./mono/metadata/file-io.c
Edwards-MacBook-Pro:mono eharvey$ find . -name '*.cs' -or -name '*.c' -or -name 
'*.h' -exec echo {} \; | grep file-io.c
(no results; in fact, if I get rid of the trailing grep, all the results 
displayed are '*.h' so of course the grep would not see 'file-io.c' in those 
results)
