Gee whiz, shouldn't you use access() instead of stat()? I mean, if you're
going to implement a suboptimal algorithm, the least you can do is code it
efficiently.

Meanwhile, some people may want to simply run updatedb as an innocuous
user:

    su guest -c /usr/lib/find/updatedb

This works pretty well for me.
