[bugs] [illumos gate - Bug #1219] find shouldn't use FTW_CHDIR

[illumos bugs]

Issue #1219 has been updated by Rich Lowe.


You'd need, at the very least, to be careful about:

* The behaviour of -exec (which you'd change if you didn't make @doexec()@ chdir instead
* The various symlink-following implications if any (see also, the various trickery done in rm to try to avoid people fooling it, presuming that this is also necessary for find).

It's usefulness is doubtful and leads to subtle problems with -acl (missing starting paths), as well as other extensions I'm thinking of.
