Sorry, it is not a bug but an effect of the argument parsing code.

Your program runs perfect if the search pattern is quoted
like findfiles "*.*".

If no quotes are used, the argument is expanded by
the startup code and that leaves the first matching file
as argument 1 which explains your finding.

/Sune Falck

PS I thing there are a global variable which can be set/unset
to avoid the argument expansion.
