Was this actually ever supposed to work? I thought, the second parameter 
for findfile() needs to be a directory for upwards-search:


,----[ :h file-searching ]-
| 2) Upward search:
|    Here you can give a directory and then search the directory tree upward for
|    a file.  You could give stop-directories to limit the upward search.  The

|    the filename (for the 'tags' option) with a ';'.  If you want several
|    stop-directories separate them with ';'.  If you want no stop-directory
|    ("search upward till the root directory) just use ';'. >
