Follow-up Comment #3, bug #16378 (project findutils):

This was reproducable on Fedora Core 4 and 5, we did not observe it on Redhat
8.

The error would occur with:
    find mydir ! -type d
but not with:
    find mydir

The file was on an NFS filesystem and was probably corrupt. `stat` informed
us that the mode on the file was 0000. `ls` listed the permissions as
"?----------". `fsck` later on picked up the inode as being inconsistant.

Given that find works without the predicate, it seems logical that it should
still work with the predicate. It may also make sense to mention a seemingly
corrupt file via stderr.
