unfortunately this issue is not solved. After reinstalling the findutils all
the owner and group settings are "restored" and the misbehaviour arises
again.

So an FAQ entry could only describe a temporary solution as long as bash has
this bug.

Regards,
Jörg

BTW: I stumbled over the behaviour looking at he trace using

$> echo -e "find --version\nexit" | starce bash | less

Bash will find "/bin/find.exe" first, but continues the search ...
