I just applied a documentation update that points this out more explicitly in the find manpage and the Texinfo manual.

I'm marking the bug 'Invalid' simply because the functionality change was deliberate (I think that 'Wont Fix' probably implies the wrong thing).

Sorry to hear your script broke, but this is mentioned in the NEWS file for findutils-4.3.3.

After upgrading findutils in Cygwin, I noticed that the -printf time format of %TS is printing 2 digit seconds followed by a decimal and ten more digits (04.5471792000 instead of 04). This actually broke some of my scripts since it was unexpected. I know that find 4.3.2 works as expected.
