GNU Emacs 23.3.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.1.7601) of 2011-03-10 on 3249CTO

If set:

  (add-to-list 'grep-find-ignored-directories "build" t)

and try search M-x rgrep in hierarchy:

  build/xxx
  src/yyy
  src/build
  build

  $ mkdir  build src;
  $ touch  build/xxx src/yyy src/build

'find' part of 'rgrep' print only (I simplify expression of 'rgrep'):

  $ find . '(' -path '*/build' -o -path '*/lib' ')' \
     -prune -o  -type f  -print
./src/yyy

Correct one is:

  $ find . '(' -type d -path '*/build' -o -path '*/lib' ')' \
     -prune -o  -type f  -print
./src/build
./src/yyy

So any dir added to 'grep-find-ignored-directories' also affected to
*regular* file names...

I previously file bug to findutils, but I am wrong:

  http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?34159

This is Emacs bug.

I suggest fix in patch.
