find(1): Is this a bug or not?

Hi,
I found that, while searching for empty directories, find(1) will not
continue if it encounters a dir it can't enter (e.g. no privilege). I
don't know if it's so designed... I've checked NetBSD and OpenBSD's
implementations (almost identical to that of FreeBSD's). And they behave
the same way as FreeBSD's find(1) does under the circumstance.
I'm wondering if this is a bug or not.
