This problem is fixed in the CVS code for findutils.
To resolve your problem, you could either wait for the
next official release of findutils, or check out a copy
of the code from the CVS repository for findutils.

In response to #13303 find nowadays will not dump non printable characters on a tty as a result of -print. However errormessages still dump the non-printable characters to the console.

How to reproduce:
ametzler@argenau:/tmp/$ mkdir /tmp/findtests && cd /tmp/findtests
ametzler@argenau:/tmp/findtests$ for i in `seq 0 99` ; do mkdir `dd if=/dev/urandom bs=1 count=30` ; done ; chmod -x *
ametzler@argenau:/tmp/findtests$ LC_ALL=C find -type d -print
[ Be surprised as the terminal will start beeping et.al.]

This seems to be fixed in 4.3.1. (In the regular find binary, find/oldfind still shows the problem.)
