Grrr.  I went back and recompiled find with -g.  And it worked.  So I
recompiled it with the default CFLAGS.  And it worked.  I promise,
nothing in the source tree has changed since I built it yesterday,
only the problem has gone into hiding.

Let's forget this one.  If it happens again, I'll try to catch it
before it goes into hiding again.
