Subject: r1859: * Reverted change in 4.1.9, so generation of EXCLUDE_FIND
 escapes "." to   "\\.", which turns into "\." after being run through the
 shell, and   prevents find from treating -X.svn as a regexp that matches
 files such   as foo/svn.vim. (It's safe to do this now that all uses of
 EXCLUDE_FIND are   via complex_doit(), which was not the case of dh_clean
 when this change   was originally made.) Closes: #349070
