[bug #23443] find regression: now fooled when crossing mountpoints

[James Youngman]

Follow-up Comment #9, bug #23443 (project findutils):

Jim, can you see any way to work around the fts cycle detection problem
outlined in comment#5?     I can't right now, but I thought I'd ask you before
marking the problem as non-fixable. 

(it amounts to, is there any evidence we could use to avoid a false positive
in cycle detection for directories that genuinely share the same block device
number and inode number?    I can't think of a way which would still be
POSIX-compliant.)
