GNU Emacs 24.1.50.1 show stopper bug: find-dired

this seems to be a showstopper bug.

• start emacs 「runemacs.exe -Q」
• 【M-x find-dired】
• 「-name "*html"」
• expected result: list of files in dired.

Here's what i got:
--------------------------------------------
  c:/Users/h3/web/xahlee_org/comp/:
  find . "(" -name "*html" ")" -exec ls -ld {} ";"
  Access denied - .
  File not found - -NAME

  ---------- AMPERSAND_HTML_ENTITIES_UNICODE_SEMANTICS.HTML
  …
  ---------- APPLE_IPAD_CENSORSHIP.HTML
  …
  ---------- ASPELL_SPELL_CHECKING.HTML
  …
  ---------- ASPELL_VOCABULARY.HTML
  …
  ---------- BLOG.HTML
  …
  ---------- YOUR_REGEX_BRAIN.HTML
  …

  File not found - )
  File not found - -EXEC
  File not found - LS
  File not found - -LD
  File not found - {}
  File not found - ;

  find finished at Sat Apr 28 19:46:27
--------------------------------------------

each of the 「…」 is about n lines of file content. The n can be 4 to 10
or more. Not sure what's the pattern.

Also, my file names are mostly lowercase. Don't know why it is CAPS
there.

GNU Emacs 24.1.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.1.7601) of 2012-04-23 on MARVIN
ErgoEmacs distribution 1.9.4

The output format (including all caps) suggests that the Windows
find.exe is invoked, instead of POSIX find. The Windows find.exe is
functionally analogous to grep -F, i.e. find a literal string in
files.

Darn. You are right. Same thing happened with emacs 23 -Q.

Thanks a lot Yuri, and for many helpful comments on my site.
