This is interesting...

I have Walnut Creeks simtel20 CD...
It non-rockridge.

find . on linux just list the files in the current directory and nothing
more...

ls -lR recurses down.

find on Ms-Dos (djgcc find) works fine.

?????

Oh, yeah, I forgot to mention...

I ran find under strace...

I saw a bunch of readdir() for each entry in the CD -- and find treated
each as a file
(I just ran find .
with no arguments in /cdrom)

Isn't readdir a user library call -- on Linux is a system call?

Its a number 3...

Try using find with the -noleaf option.
