Hello,

`find-dired' stopped working for me.  Backtraces look like this in emacs -Q:

| Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument processp nil)
|   set-process-filter(nil find-dired-filter)
|   (let ((proc (get-buffer-process (current-buffer)))) (set-process-filter proc #'find-dired-filter) (set-process-sentinel proc #'find-dired-sentinel) (move-marker (process-mark proc) (point) (current-buffer)))
|   ...
|   find-dired("/my/path/" "-type l ! -readable")
|   (let ((find-program "find")) (find-dired (expand-file-name "..") "-type l ! -readable"))

Haven't investigated why this happens, but I can execute `find` in a
shell normally.  However, reverting
