In version 4.2.33 of findutils, at line 436 of buildcmd.c,
is this
section of code:

  /* Take the size of the environment into account.  */
  if (size_of_environment > ctl->posix_arg_size_max)
    {
      return BC_INIT_ENV_TOO_BIG;
    }
  else
    {
      ctl->posix_arg_size_max - size_of_environment;
    }

Notice the do-nothing statement in the else block.
This code is present from v4.2.28 to the present.

I believe that this problem was fixed in findutils-4.3.5,
released on 2007-05-05

This time, actually copying the mailing list.   Sigh.
