Hi,

short problem summary: NFS mounted /home directory. Find fails to report
all subdirectories, if directory was just created. Reproducable. This seems
to be there since 2.0.34(?) (this is the last time I checked).

debian:~/tmp> mkdir -p a/b/c/d/e
debian:~/tmp> find a/
a/
a/b
debian:~/tmp> find a/
a/
a/b
a/b/c
a/b/c/d
a/b/c/d/e
debian:~/tmp> find a/
a/
a/b
a/b/c
a/b/c/d
a/b/c/d/e

Client: Homemade 2.2.9 plain vanilla kernel.
