[comp.unix.wizards] find command fails on valid directories

I have a backup script which uses 'find' to generate a list
of files to pass onto afio.  Lately I've noticed the backup
script reporting the following errors:

...
find: stat() failed: /usr/hbtcp: No such file or directory
find: stat() failed: /usr/preserve: No such file or directory
find: stat() failed: /usr/lbin: No such file or directory
find: stat() failed: /usr/bin: No such file or directory
find: stat() failed: /usr/admin: No such file or directory
...
find: stat failed: usr: No such file or directory
...

As far as I can tell all these directories are perfectly heathly
and work in everyway except for this problem with find.
The backup script is run as root.

Any ideas what could be wrong?

I'm running Interactive 386/ix release 2.0.1 of System V.3.2.
