Details:

(SID)address@hidden:/tmp/testingnow$ rm * ; \
  for i in 86400 86399 86398 1; do \
    touch -d "$i seconds ago" $i ;\
  done;  touch now; \
  find . -type f -mtime 0;echo x ; sleep 1; \
  find . -type f -mtime 0
./86400
./1
./86398
./86399
x
./1
./now
./86398
./86399

As you can see -ctime 0 does not find the 0-second-old file, but does show
the 86400s (which is exactly one day) old file. I think that is wrong.

This applies to {m,c,a}time and both 4.2.x and 4.3.x.

thanks, cu andreas
