Details:

Hello,
this based on <http://bugs.debian.org/548944>. If -L is present -execdir does
not work as expected:


address@hidden:/tmp$ mkdir -p findtest/ab/b
address@hidden:/tmp$ cd findtest/
address@hidden:/tmp/findtest$ touch ab/b/yyyy
address@hidden:/tmp/findtest$ find -name yyyy -exec ls {} \;
./ab/b/yyyy
address@hidden:/tmp/findtest$ find -name yyyy -execdir ls {} \;
./yyyy
address@hidden:/tmp/findtest$ find -L -name yyyy -execdir ls {} \;
././ab/b/yyyy
address@hidden:/tmp/findtest$ oldfind -L -name yyyy -execdir ls {} \;
./yyyy

As you can see oldfind (pre-fts) is fine. 4.5.5 behaves the same way as
4.4.2.

thanks, cu andreas
