you are right, a very similar fix is already part of the development
version, 4.1.7.

Version 4.1.7 used to live at alpha.gnu.org, but currently is not available.
You can get it from:
ftp://ftp.du.se/pub/mirrors/sourceforge/murix/findutils-4.1.7.tar.bz2

Or gzipped findutils-4.1.7.tar.gz from various GNU/Linux distributions:
gentoo, rootlinux, slackware

Thank you again for your bug reports and sorry for the inconvenience,
