  Cannot reproduce:

dk@mace /proc> find /proc
/proc
/proc/loadavg
/proc/meminfo
/proc/registry
/proc/registry/HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
/proc/registry/HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/*
/proc/registry/HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/*/OpenWithList
find: /proc/registry/HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/*/OpenWithList: Is a directory
/proc/registry/HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/*/shellex

/proc/registry/HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/*/InfoTip
/proc/registry/HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/*/QuickTip
/proc/registry/HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/*/AlwaysShowExt
/proc/registry/HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/*/TileInfo
find: /proc/registry/HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/*: Is a directory
dk@mace /proc> find --version
GNU find version 4.2.11-CVS
dk@mace /proc> cygcheck -c findutils cygwin
Cygwin Package Information

  The cygwin dll is in fact built from CVS on 2005-14-15, so it's
effectively the same as 1.5.15.
