>Description:

Find (in 2.2) complains about perfectly legal file system paths:

find: /home/usr.local/lib/executor/ExecutorVolume/Freeware/Desktop Textures Vol.I: illegal path

All of my daily logs are now filled with messages like the above with thousands 
of lines, obscuring real problems in the reports, making them harder to read..

	

>How-To-Repeat:

Look at your log, chances are the messages are there.
	

>Fix:
	
Bash find until it stops bitching..

Duplicate of PR# 1910.  However, in this case, find is 
doing as it should: reporting "expoitable" file names that 
would have been handed off to xargs.
