I presume this is find -name '*.cvs'

Are these tests with the same executable?  Some of the bugs we
are seeing are CVS update bugs, others are Win2K/XP bugs, others are
just old bugs.

For example, the new executable:
 find . -name '*cvs*'
does not find .cvsignore or .cvs but does find !.cvs (on NT 4.0 with lfn tsr).

I see the exact same behavior on Win2K.  Same behavior on XP RC1. I see the 
same behavior with the simtel binary.  

I don't have any Win 9x systems to test on.  

What exactly is the expected behavior and which systems show it?
