Close, but not yet :-)  It'd be really good to add a test to the
testsuite to exercise this and make sure we don't break the fix
ever again.  Clearly we don't have a test yet that covers
this scenario otherwise we'd have noticed the problem before!
Maybe add it to gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/find.{c,exp}?

Thanks,
