--- Comment #4 from Oleksandr Tymoshenko <gonzo at FreeBSD.org> ---
This is breaking behavior, I think a lot of existing scripts using find(1) rely
on filenames to be prefix-less. The easy way to work around this is to use '--'
marker to separate arguments from files:

% cat x.sh
mkdir -p /tmp/test
cd /tmp/test
>"-foo"
find . -type f -execdir ls -la -- {} \;
% sh x.sh
-rw-r--r--  1 gonzo  wheel  0 Jan 28 13:42 -foo
