Summary:  find fails on automounter paths

Original Submission:  The stat checks causing the find to quit where:
    * The find path is an SUN automounter directory and
    * It's not already mounted

<<SNIP>>
~> find /proj/test
find: /proj/test changed during execution of find 
~> sudo umount /proj/test
~> gnu find /proj/test/.
/proj/test
/proj/test/file
...
<<>>

Thanks.

I think that automountd is the common factor here.  When you chdir() into an 
aoutomounted directory, that directory is mounted which causes the device 
number (and inode of course) to change.  This alarms the csanity check that we 
do.

findutils-4.2.4 has some extra diagnostics for this situation,  could you 
retest with that version and let me know what error message is produced?   
Thanks.
