Yeah, I did try it out; you actually got it right the first time anyway,
IIRC. The -exec just got lost when the -m..depth options were added and
I didn't notice. So it tested fine, but when I copy/pasted for the docs,
it wasn't. My oops, not yours!

Actually, on my system it looks like the trailing slash should be
omitted, too, or there is a double slash in the argument passed to
mlmmj-maintd. Probably doesn't matter, but is a little unconventional,
so I'll take the slash out of the docs.
