New release of findutils with newer gnulib?

The last release of GNU findutils was two years ago.  OpenBSD is
currently growing support for openat() and related functionality.
This happens piece by piece and the old gnulib included in findutils
makes unwarranted assumptions (AT_REMOVEDIR is defined when
AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW is; fdopendir() is available when openat() is)
that break with this work in progress.  Newer versions of gnulib,
as exemplified by the one included with GNU tar, handle the situation
just fine.

Could somebody please do a new findutils release with an up-to-date
gnulib?
