Details:

bug #9043: find fails on automounter paths
has regressed, apparently with the introduction of
gnulib/fts

Even specifying --enable-leaf-optimisation=no
has no effect when fts is enabled because
gnulib fts appears to assume that the leaf optimisation
is always correct...fts.c states
"  Otherwise, we assume that the number
 * of subdirectories in a node is equal to the number of links to the
parent."

Here is the output of a series of find commands.
Each invocation of find causes the automounter to
mount another filesystem, and causes the find command
to search more files.  The workaround is to build
findutils --without-fts

 $ (pwd; FIND=~/src/findutils-4.3.12/find/find; repeat 4 (mount | grep
/hotspot; $FIND -name '*.cpp' | wc -l; echo ---; sleep 10); $FIND --version;
uname -a)
