is actually wrong, because the \; is required by the underlying shell
that spawn runs the find command in, and should be \\; if using " as
the quoting character for the spawn().
This is a one of those perl quoting conundrums. This is probably better
quoted like this:
spawn('find /spider/local_data/logs -type f -mtime +62 -exec rm -f {} \;').
or
spawn(q[find /spider/local_data/logs -type f -mtime +62 -exec rm -f {} \;]).
sorry about that.
