As I read it the man page suggests something perfectly simple like:
find = subprocess.Popen(
['find', '--'] +
[A if A[0]=='/' else './'+A for A in args.args] +
(['-xdev'] if args.X else []),
stdout=subprocess.PIPE)

I have to admit I'm not completely clear on what you want, but whatever
it is it needs to be consistent with the documented syntax. You might
want to take another look at the man page.
