Continuing useless discussion...

Actually as you are not excluding CVS, RCS, etc., and using ??* as
the starting point will exclude .git, .hg, etc. at the top, I think
we can shorten it even further and say

	find ??* -name Documentation -prune -o -name \*.h

or something.

...and time to go back to something more serious and practical.

Don't we want to exclude contrib/ by the way?
