I can reproduce find(1) failing, but it's not clear to me where and why
this happens. Apparently there's a point where internally allocated
space gets overwritten while recursively calling readdir. Due to the
huge number of files it's not easy to catch the place where this happens.
OTOH this does not occur when recursively calling readdir using ls(1)
which allows the assumption that it's find, not Cygwin, which overwrites
the memory.
Where's the difference between find and ls when recursing through
directories? Eric, do you see a chance to find time to debug this?
Thanks,
Corinna
