Thanks for double-checking!

When I edited the command-line to run the executable containing the fix, I
did:

$ while :; do find ~/downloads/findutils/find/find findtest
-ignore_readdir_race; done >/dev/null

It took me a while to spot the careless error.  :-(

When I actually run the correct executable I see my debug message instead of
ENOENT, so the fix is good.

Sorry for getting it wrong and wasting an iteration!

BTW, is a find starting-point really allowed to be a regular file instead of a
directory?
